An access log features a record of all of the files which have been requested by the visitors while browsing your website. The list is thorough, so in case you have a web page with 2 embedded images, for example, all of the three files will be in the log, not just the page. An access log typically includes the date, the Operating System, the Internet browser and the IP address for each file in human-readable form, so you can get a good idea about the hottest files on your Internet site. The log, that's also frequently named "raw data", is an addition to the web data which you typically get with a hosting account, not a substitute. One example why you may need this type of a log is if you want to use some software on your computer system to prepare a report about the website’s performance, but you do not want to use the standard graphs and tables that come with the server-generated website stats.
Access Log Manager in Web Hosting
When you pick one of our web hosting solutions, you will get comprehensive access logs for all your websites. After you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you should check out the Access/Error Logs section in which you will see a complete list of the domains and subdomains that you've added or created in the web hosting account. You'll only have to click on the On button, that is situated on the right-hand side of every hostname and our cloud platform will start generating logs immediately. To stop this feature, you will have to follow the same exact steps and click on the Off button. The domains and subdomains could be handled separately and at any time. You will find a download link inside the Logs section of the CP for any log generated by our system, so that you can save the file to your personal computer and view it or use it via some log processing software.
Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you have a semi-dedicated server account with our company, it won't take more than a couple of clicks to trigger the generation of access logs by our system if you need them. The feature can be permitted through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel and this may be done individually for each domain or subdomain which you have in your account. As soon as you log in and visit the Access/Error Logs section of the CP, you will see a list of all the hostnames with an On/Off button next to all of them. One click shall activate the log generation and a second one will deactivate it, so you can control this function with great convenience. A Download link within the same section will permit you to save the gathered content as a text file, which you may then use on your notebook or computer. Even when the logs are deactivated, you shall still be able to download the data that has been previously generated.
