An access log includes a record of all files which have been requested by the visitors while browsing your website. The list is detailed, so in case you have a web page with two embedded images, for example, all of the three files will be in the log, not just the page. An access log usually contains the date, the Operating System, the web 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, which is also commonly named "raw data", is an addition to the web data that you commonly get with a hosting account, not a substitute. An illustration why you might need this kind of a log is if you wish to use some software on your computer to prepare a report about the website’s performance, but you do not want to use the standard graphs and tables which come with the server-generated site statistics.

Access Log Manager in Shared Hosting

If you get a shared hosting from us, you shall be able to decide if access logs should be produced and for which domains or subdomains in your account this must be done. You could enable this feature from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, incorporated with all shared accounts. Each domain you host or subdomain you set up will be listed there and you will see an On/Off option next to each and every one of them, so you can quickly enable or deactivate the generation of access logs separately for each site that you have. You could save a log to your computer by clicking on the Download link that you shall see inside the same exact section of the CP. The link shall 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 leading-edge web hosting platform shall create access logs for each website hosted in a semi-dedicated server account, assuming that this function is activated. All domains and subdomains that you have shall be listed inside the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, which we supply with all the accounts, so if you need our system to start creating logs for any of them, you should simply click on the compact button on the right side of the respective domain/subdomain and change the default Off option to On. You can disable this function at any time by following exactly the same steps. You can find a Download link for every single log within the same section of the CP, so you may save the content produced by our system in .txt format with simply a click. An existing log file could be downloaded even after the feature has been disabled, so you will still be able to check out the data that has already been generated.
