An access log is a detailed list of all the files that were accessed by the visitors of a certain Internet site. Every file which was requested for whatever reason will be listed, so if you have a single webpage with 3 embedded pics, one video and one embedded text file, as an illustration, the access log will contain a total of six entries - one for every of the six files which were accessed when the visitor opened the page. A log usually contains the file name and path, the date, as well as the visitor’s OS, Internet browser and IP address. Oftentimes you can also find the referrer sites that sent the visitors to your Internet site. The information that an access log file features is in human-readable plain text format. It can be processed by special software on a personal computer and used to write reports on the functionality of an Internet site, aside from the web stats your hosting server may have produced.
Access Log Manager in Shared Hosting
Enabling the generation of access logs will be really easy when you buy a shared hosting from us. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, which comes with all of the accounts, has a section on different logs which is where you'll find the access logs too. Once you navigate there, you will see a list of all the domain names hosted inside the account and the subdomains created for them. Our custom made cloud hosting platform will start producing an access log for each of them when you click on the On button, that you will see on the right. If you don't need logs, disabling the option is just as quick and can be accomplished by clicking on the Off button in the same section. All of the logs are downloadable, therefore you can effortlessly save and manage them on your desktop PC or notebook.
Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our advanced website hosting platform will create access logs for each and every site hosted inside a semi-dedicated server account, as long as this feature is permitted. All domain names and subdomains that you have shall be listed within the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, that we supply with all the accounts, so if you'd like our system to start generating logs for any of them, you should just click on the little button on the right side of the respective domain/subdomain and change the default Off option to On. You may deactivate this feature anytime by following the same steps. You'll find a Download link for each and every log in the same exact section of the Control Panel, so you could save the content generated by our system in .txt format with just a click. An existing log file can be downloaded even after the option has been disabled, so you'll still be able to see the data that's already been generated.
