An access log is a detailed list of all the files that were accessed by the guests of a particular site. Any file that was requested for whatever reason shall be listed, so if you have a single webpage with three embedded graphics, one video and one embedded text file, for example, the access log shall contain a total of six entries - one for every of the six files which were accessed when the website visitor opened the page. A log normally shows the file name and path, the date, plus the visitor’s Operating System, browser and IP address. Sometimes you may also find the referrer sites that sent the visitors to your website. The data that an access log file provides is in human-readable plain text format. It could be processed by special software on a personal computer and used to prepare reports on the performance of a website, independent of the web statistics which your hosting server may have created.

Access Log Manager in Shared Website Hosting

If you pick one of our shared website hosting plans, you will get comprehensive access logs for all your websites. Once you sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, you should check out the Access/Error Logs section where you will see a full list of the domain names and subdomains you have added or created within the web hosting account. You will simply have to click on the On button, that is found on the right-hand side of each and every hostname and our cloud platform shall start generating logs immediately. To stop this function, you will need 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 can find a download link within the Logs section of the CP for any log produced by our system, so 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 Servers

You shall be able to look at detailed access logs for any Internet site that you host within a semi-dedicated server account set up on our revolutionary hosting platform. Our cutting-edge Hepsia hosting CP will allow you to activate the function for every single domain name or subdomain within the account individually, which means that you can get logs exclusively for the websites which you want. After you sign in, you can navigate to the Access/Error Logs section where you will discover a list of all the domain addresses and subdomains that you've added or created and an On/Off button on the right side of all of them. Initiating or deactivating the generation of access logs is as elementary as clicking on that button and the change will take effect immediately. You can easily save the logs in .txt format by clicking on the Download link situated in the same section. The latter will be available all of the time, even if you disable the feature for a particular domain name or subdomain.
