An access log is a text file that contains a complete report on all the files accessed by your site visitors. All of the files that were requested in one way or another will be included, so when you have a PHP script app and a website visitor opens only the home page, for example, you may find many files inside the log. This is because there are resources on the home page which are embedded - parts of other pages, pics, and so forth. All these files will be listed within the access log, so you can get a full picture of the way your site works. The data is in plain text format, so the logs are frequently termed "raw data" as well. An access log shows the name of every requested file, the path to it, the date it was accessed, along with the user’s IP address, world-wide web browser and Operating System. More info, including the referrer site, is usually provided as well. A log file can be processed by various desktop applications for statistical purposes as an addition to the web statistics generated by your website hosting server.

Access Log Manager in Cloud Web Hosting

When you opt for one of our cloud web hosting solutions, you will get thorough access logs for your websites. After you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you should check out the Access/Error Logs section where you will see a thorough list of the domains and subdomains which you have added or created in the web hosting account. You'll only need to click on the On button, that is found on the right-hand side of each and every hostname and our cloud platform will start generating logs right away. To disable this feature, you will need to follow the exact same steps and click on the Off button. The domains and subdomains can be handled individually and at any time. You can find a download link in the Logs section of the CP for every log created by our system, so you're able to save the file to your laptop or computer and view it or use it through some log processing software.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you host your sites inside a semi-dedicated server account with us, you will have the option to enable or disable the generation of access logs with no more than a couple of mouse clicks inside your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You'll find this feature within the Access/Error Logs section, which you can access when you sign in. All it takes for our system to start generating logs is a click on the On button that you'll see there. The feature can be triggered separately for any website regardless if it uses a domain or a subdomain and you'll find the complete list of all the hosts inside that section. Any access log can be downloaded as a text file with just a click and you could then look at it manually or use some software on your computer. The log generation may be disabled by simply changing the On option to Off inside the Logs section of your Control Panel.
