An access log is a text file which contains a complete list of all of the files accessed by your site visitors. All of the files that were requested in one way or another shall be included, so if you have a PHP script app and a website visitor opens just the home page, for instance, you might find plenty of files in the log. The reason is that there are elements on the home page which are embedded - parts of other web pages, graphics, etc. All these files will be listed in the access log, so you can get a full picture of the way your site functions. The information is in plain text format, so the logs are frequently described as "raw data" as well. An access log shows the name of each requested file, the path to it, the date it was accessed, in addition to the user’s IP address, Internet browser and OS. More information, including the referrer website, is usually included as well. A log file can be processed by various desktop applications for statistical purposes as an addition to the web stats provided by your website hosting server.
Access Log Manager in Cloud Web Hosting
When you pick one of our cloud web hosting packages, you will receive detailed access logs for all your Internet sites. As soon as you sign in to your Hepsia CP, you should check out the Access/Error Logs section in which you will see a full list of the domain names and subdomains you have added or created in the hosting account. You will only need to click on the On button, that's located on the right-hand side of every hostname and our cloud platform will start generating logs immediately. To disable this function, you'll need to follow the exact same steps and click on the Off button. The domains and subdomains could be handled separately and whenever you want. You'll find a download link in the Logs section of the Control Panel for any log produced by our system, so you can save the file to your computer and view it or use it with some log processing software.
