An error log is a list of the error messages and warnings that appeared for one reason or another while your visitors were browsing your site. This sort of a log provides raw information on the way the server has addressed requests in various situations. An error message might appear if, for instance, a link leads to a webpage or a file that's not on the server, if the code on a particular page can't be processed, if any individual is trying to access the site or its back office through an IP address that's blocked by an .htaccess rule and so on. The information inside the error log features the IP address of the website visitor, what error message showed up and the root cause for the server to display it, the full path to the file that induced the error and the precise time of the event. Having this info will permit you to determine if any part of your Internet site has an issue, that you can then take care of. Consequently, your site visitors will have a better experience and you may boost the website for maximum performance.

Error Log Viewer in Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, offered with our hosting accounts, shall make it very simple to generate and check out an error log for any Internet site that you have in your account. When you log in, you will need to check out the Access/Error Logs section and click on the On/Off button for the Internet site that you would like to monitor. The button is available for each and every domain name that you have hosted and every subdomain which you have set up, so you can get a detailed log for each of them individually, in order to be able to check the sites for problems easier. A second click on the same exact button will turn off the feature, but you'll still be able to get the log by clicking on the Download link, which is available in the same section. When necessary, you can use software on your computer to process the raw web server data for statistical purposes.

Error Log Viewer in Semi-dedicated Servers

The error log generation is a function that can be switched on with a click with each of the semi-dedicated server packages which we provide. You can do this using the Access/Error Logs section of the custom Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, which we will give you to manage your account. After you go there, you'll see each domain name and subdomain which you have hosted/created in the account listed in alphabetical order. Initiating the error logs could be performed separately for every one of them by clicking on the On button, that is situated on the right-hand side. By clicking on the Off button, you'll deactivate the log generation if, for instance, you have solved the problems on the website or you have relocated it someplace else. You may also download each of the logs with only a mouse click and if you have the required software on your personal computer, you may process them and get easy-to-read graphs and charts that will help you spot the most common issues on the site.
