An access log features a record of all the files which have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your Internet site. The list is comprehensive, so in case you have a web page with 2 embedded images, for example, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log usually includes the date, the OS, the web browser and the IP address for every single file in human-readable form, so you can get a good idea about the most well liked files on your website. The log, which is also commonly called "raw data", is an addition to the web data that you normally get with a hosting account, not a substitute. An example why you could need this type of a log is if you want to use some software on your personal computer to prepare a report about the website’s efficiency, but you do not want to use the standard graphs and tables which come with the server-generated web stats.

Access Log Manager in Cloud Website Hosting

Enabling the generation of access logs will be exceptionally easy if you acquire a cloud website hosting from our company. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, supplied with all the accounts, features a section on different logs which is where you shall find the access logs as well. As you navigate there, you shall see a list of all the domains hosted in the account and the subdomains created for them. Our custom cloud hosting platform shall start generating an access log for each of them when you click on the On button, which you'll see on the right. If you don't require logs, disabling the option is just as quick and can be accomplished by clicking on the Off button in the same exact section. All of the logs are downloadable, therefore you can effortlessly save and manage them on your desktop computer or laptop.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you host your Internet sites in a semi-dedicated server account with our company, you shall have the option to activate or deactivate the generation of access logs with just a couple of mouse clicks within your Hepsia hosting CP. You shall find this function inside the Access/Error Logs section, which you can access when you sign in. All it takes for our system to start creating logs is a single click on the On button that you'll see there. The feature can be triggered independently for any website regardless if it uses a domain or a subdomain and you shall find the complete list of all the hosts in that section. Any access log can be downloaded as a text file with simply a click and you could then view it manually or use some software on your personal computer. The log generation could be disabled by simply changing the On option to Off within the Logs section of your Control Panel.
