An access log includes a record of all the files that have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your website. The list is detailed, so in case you have a webpage with 2 embedded images, for instance, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log normally features the date, the Operating System, the web browser and the IP address for every single file in human-readable form, so you can get a more complete picture about the most well liked files on your site. The log, that's also typically referred to as "raw data", is an addition to the web stats which you normally get with a hosting account, not a replacement. A good example why you may need such a log is if you intend 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 Shared Hosting

Enabling the generation of access logs shall be extremely simple if you acquire a shared hosting from us. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, provided with all of the accounts, has a section on different logs and this is where you shall find the access logs as well. Once you go there, you shall see a list of all the domain names hosted within the account and the subdomains created for them. Our customized cloud hosting platform will start producing an access log for each of them as soon as you click on the On button, which you will see on the right. If you no longer need logs, disabling the option is just as easy and can be carried out by clicking on the Off button within the very same section. All the logs are downloadable, which means that you can comfortably save and manage them on your PC or laptop.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

When you have a semi-dedicated server account with us, it won't take more than a few clicks to enable the generation of access logs by our system if you require them. The feature could be enabled via the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel and this can be done individually for each and every domain name or subdomain which you have inside your account. After you log in and go to the Access/Error Logs section of the CP, you will discover a list of all the hostnames with an On/Off button next to each one. A single click will enable the log generation and a second one will deactivate it, so you can control this feature with great ease. A Download link within the same section will allow you to save the generated content as a text file, which you may then use on your computer system. Even when the logs are deactivated, you'll still be able to download the data that's been previously generated.
