An access log includes a record of all the files that have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your Internet site. The list is thorough, so in case you have a webpage with 2 embedded images, for instance, all of the three files will be in the log, not just the page. An access log typically contains the date, the Operating System, the browser and the IP address for each and every file in human-readable form, so you can get a more complete picture about the most well liked files on your website. The log, that's also typically named "raw data", is an addition to the web statistics which you usually get with a hosting account, not an alternative. An example why you may need such a log is if you want to use some software on your PC to prepare a report about the website’s efficiency, but you do not want to use the regular graphs and tables that come with the server-generated website stats.

Access Log Manager in Cloud Hosting

Enabling the generation of access logs shall be really easy if you acquire a cloud hosting from us. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, supplied with all the accounts, has a section dedicated to different logs which is where you will find the access logs too. Once you navigate there, you will see a list of all the domain names hosted inside the account and the subdomains created for them. Our customized cloud hosting platform shall start producing an access log for any of them the instant 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 fast and can be done by clicking on the Off button inside the same exact section. All of the logs are downloadable, therefore you can easily save and manage them on your PC or laptop.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you host your websites in a semi-dedicated server account with us, you will have the option to enable or deactivate the generation of access logs with only several mouse clicks inside your Hepsia hosting CP. You'll find this feature in the Access/Error Logs section, which you can access after you sign in. All it takes for our system to start producing logs is a click on the On button that you will see there. The function can be triggered separately for any website regardless if it uses a domain name or a subdomain and you shall find a detailed list of all the hosts in that section. Any access log can be downloaded as a text file with just a click and you can then look at it manually or use some software on your computer. The log generation may be disabled by simply switching the On option to Off within the Logs section of your Control Panel.
