An access log features a record of all files that have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your Internet site. The list is comprehensive, so if you have a webpage with 2 embedded images, for example, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log usually contains the date, the OS, the Internet browser and the IP address for each file in human-readable form, so you can get a more complete picture about the most well liked files on your Internet site. The log, that is also typically called "raw data", is an addition to the web stats that you usually get with a hosting account, not a substitute. An example why you might need this kind of a log is if you wish to use some software on your PC to prepare a report about the website’s general performance, but you do not want to use the typical graphs and tables which come with the server-generated website stats.
Access Log Manager in Shared Website Hosting
When you opt for one of our shared website hosting plans, you’ll receive detailed access logs for all your Internet sites. Once you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you can check out the Access/Error Logs section in which you will see a full list of the domain names and subdomains that you've added or created within the hosting account. You'll simply need to click on the On button, that is located on the right-hand side of each hostname and our cloud platform will start generating logs right away. To stop this function, you'll have to follow the very same steps and click on the Off button. The domains and subdomains can be managed independently and whenever you want. You will 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 personal computer and view it or use it through some log processing software.
Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you have a semi-dedicated server account with us, it shall not take more than a couple of clicks to trigger the generation of access logs by our system if you require them. The feature may be permitted via the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and this can be done separately for each domain name or subdomain which you have in your account. When you log in and look at the Access/Error Logs section of the Control Panel, you'll see a list of all the hostnames with an On/Off button next to each one. One click will activate the log generation and a second one will disable it, so you can control this feature with great ease. A Download link inside the same section will allow you to save the created content as a text file, which you may then use on your computer. Whether or not the logs are deactivated, you shall still be able to download the data that's been previously generated.
