An access log is a thorough list of all the files which were accessed by the guests of a given site. Every file that was requested in some way will be listed, so if you have one webpage with 3 embedded pics, one video and one embedded text file, as an example, the access log will contain a total of six entries - one for every of the six files which were accessed when the site visitor opened the webpage. A log typically provides the file name and path, the date, along with the visitor’s Operating System, web browser and IP address. Occasionally you may also find the referrer Internet sites that sent the visitors to your website. The info that an access log file contains is in human-readable plain text format. It could be processed by special software on a personal computer and used to prepare reports on the efficiency of a website, independent of the web statistics your hosting server may have created.
Access Log Manager in Cloud Web Hosting
When you acquire a cloud web hosting from our company, you will be able to decide if access logs must be produced and for which domains or subdomains inside your account this should be done. You could activate this feature from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, incorporated with all shared accounts. Each and every domain name you host or subdomain you create will be listed there and you will see an On/Off option next to each of them, so you can quickly activate or deactivate the generation of access logs individually for each site that you have. You can save a log to your computer by clicking on the Download link that you shall see in the exact same section of the CP. The link shall be available even if you disable the log generation, so you'll still have access to the data gathered by our system.
Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our advanced hosting platform will generate access logs for each and every site hosted within a semi-dedicated server account, assuming that this function is enabled. All domain names and subdomains that you have will be listed in the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, which we supply with all of the accounts, so if you want our system to start producing logs for any of them, you should just click on the compact button on the right side of the respective domain/subdomain and change the default Off option to On. You could deactivate this function at any time by following the very same steps. You can find a Download link for every single log within the same section of the Control Panel, so you can easily save the content produced by our system in .txt format with just a mouse click. An existing log file could be downloaded even after the feature has been deactivated, so you'll still be able to look at the data that has already been generated.
