An access log includes a record of all files that have been requested by the visitors while exploring your Internet site. The list is detailed, so if you have a web page with two embedded images, for instance, all of the three files will be in the log, not only the page. An access log normally features the date, the Operating System, the web browser and the IP address for every single file in human-readable form, so you can get an idea about the most well liked files on your Internet site. The log, that's also frequently called "raw data", is an addition to the web data that you usually get with a hosting account, not an alternative. One example why you may need this type of a log is if you wish to use some software on your computer system to prepare a report about the website’s efficiency, but you don't want to use the typical graphs and tables that come with the server-generated site stats.
Access Log Manager in Cloud Website Hosting
When you purchase a cloud website hosting from us, you will be able to determine if access logs have to be created and for which domains or subdomains in your account this should be done. You'll be able to activate this feature from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia CP, included with all shared accounts. Each and every domain you host or subdomain you set up will be listed there and you'll see an On/Off option next to each one of them, so you can effortlessly activate or disable the generation of access logs independently for each website that you have. You may save a log to your laptop or computer by clicking on the Download link you'll see within the very same section of the Control Panel. The link is available even after you disable the log generation, so you shall still have access to the data collected by our system.
Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you host your sites in a semi-dedicated server account with our company, you'll have the option to activate or disable the generation of access logs with only several clicks within your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You will find this function within the Access/Error Logs section, which you can access once you sign in. All it takes for our system to start producing logs is a click on the On button that you'll see there. The feature can be enabled individually for any website regardless if it uses a domain or a subdomain and you will find a full list of all the hosts within that section. Any access log can be downloaded as a text file with just a click and you can then see it manually or use some software on your laptop or computer. The log generation could be stopped by simply changing the On option to Off within the Logs section of your Control Panel.
