An access log features 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 web page with 2 embedded images, for example, all of the three files shall be in the log, not only the page. An access log typically features the date, the OS, the Internet browser and the IP address for every file in human-readable form, so you can get a more complete picture about the hottest files on your website. The log, that's also typically named "raw data", is an addition to the web data that you usually get with a hosting account, not a replacement. One example why you could need this type of a log is if you would like to use some software on your computer to prepare a report about the website’s functionality, but you do not want to use the regular graphs and tables that come with the server-generated web statistics.

Access Log Manager in Cloud Hosting

Our custom Hepsia Control Panel includes a section dedicated to various logs and the access logs are one of them. When you sign in to your cloud hosting account and navigate to this section, you will find a list of all the domains and subdomains you have. All it takes to enable the generation of access logs is to press a button which will be available next to every single domain/subdomain. If the option is active, you'll see a download link along with the file size so far, so you'll be able to save the file to your personal computer and view it or process it with some program. Enabling or disabling the logs becomes effective right away, so if you no longer require one, you may stop it with only a mouse click from the very same section of the CP. You will still have the ability to access the already created content by clicking on the Download link.

Once you sign in, you can navigate to the Access/Error Logs section in which you will discover a list of all the domain addresses and subdomains that you have added or created and an On/Off button on the right side of each of them. Enabling or deactivating the generation of access logs is as basic as clicking on that button and the change shall take effect instantaneously. You could save the logs in .txt format by clicking on the Download link situated in the same section. The latter shall be available all the time, even after you deactivate the feature for a given domain or subdomain.
