An error log is an in depth report of the warnings and error messages that site visitors encountered when they were browsing your Internet site. This is the raw data that the server has accumulated and it can help you discover potential issues with your Internet site and handle them in a timely manner, so as to enhance the site’s functionality and to increase the users’ full satisfaction. You will find a variety of things within an error log - the time when the error appeared, the exact path to the file the site visitor can't access, the IP address the request came from, and the reason why this request cannot be processed. There are lots of reasons for your visitors to see an error message - a link which leads to a non-existent file, a script site that cannot be processed in the correct way by the server, a website access attempt by a blocked IP address, and many others.
