An access log includes a record of all the files that have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your site. The list is thorough, so when you have a webpage with two embedded images, for example, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log usually features the date, the Operating System, the Internet browser and the IP address for every single file in human-readable form, so you can get an idea about the hottest files on your Internet site. The log, that's also commonly named "raw data", is an addition to the web data that you normally get with a hosting account, not a substitute. A good example why you may need this type of a log is if you wish to use some software on your computer system to prepare a report about the website’s overall performance, but you don't want to use the standard graphs and tables that come with the server-generated site stats.

Access Log Manager in Cloud Website Hosting

Enabling the generation of access logs shall be extremely easy when you get a cloud website hosting from us. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, supplied with all the accounts, has a section dedicated to different logs which is where you'll find the access logs as well. When you navigate there, you shall see a list of all the domain names hosted within the account and the subdomains created for them. Our custom cloud hosting platform will start producing an access log for any of them when you click on the On button, which you'll see on the right. If you don't need logs, disabling the option is just as easy and can be accomplished by clicking on the Off button in the same section. All the logs are downloadable, so you can conveniently save and manage them on your PC or notebook.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our advanced web hosting platform shall create access logs for every site hosted within a semi-dedicated server account, assuming that this feature is activated. All domain names and subdomains that you have shall be listed within the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia CP, that we offer with all of the accounts, so if you need our system to start creating logs for any of them, you should simply 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 whenever you want by following the exact same steps. You can find a Download link for each and every log inside the exact same section of the CP, so you will be able to save the content generated by our system in .txt format with simply a click. An existing log file may be downloaded even after the option has been deactivated, so you will still be able to look at the data that's already been generated.
