An access log is a thorough list of all the files that were accessed by the guests of a certain site. Each and every file that was requested for whatever reason will be listed, so if you have just one page with 3 embedded graphics, one video and one embedded text file, for instance, the access log shall contain a total of six entries - one for every of the 6 files which were accessed when the site visitor opened the webpage. A log typically offers the file name and path, the date, plus the visitor’s Operating System, worldwide web browser and IP address. Sometimes you can also find the referrer websites that sent the visitors to your Internet site. The information which an access log file features is in human-readable plain text format. It can also be processed by special software on a personal computer and used to prepare reports on the functionality of a website, besides the web statistics which your hosting server may have produced.

Access Log Manager in Website Hosting

If you obtain a website hosting from us, you'll be able to determine if access logs have to be produced and for which domains or subdomains inside your account this must be done. You'll be able to enable this feature from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all shared accounts. Each domain you host or subdomain you create will be listed there and you see an On/Off option next to every one of them, so you can quickly activate or disable the generation of access logs independently for every website that you have. You may save a log to your computer by clicking on the Download link you'll see within the very same section of the CP. The link will be available even if you deactivate the log generation, so you'll still have access to the data gathered by our system.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our advanced web hosting platform shall generate access logs for each and every Internet site hosted in a semi-dedicated server account, provided that this function is enabled. All domains and subdomains that you have will be listed within the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia CP, which we supply with all of the accounts, so if you would like our system to start generating logs for any of them, you should simply click on the little button on the right side of the respective domain/subdomain and switch the default Off option to On. You may stop this function at any time by following exactly the same steps. You will find a Download link for each log within the same exact section of the CP, so you will be able to save the content generated by our system in .txt format with simply a mouse click. An existing log file can be downloaded even after the function has been deactivated, so you'll still be able to see the data which has already been generated.
