An error log is a collection of data that contains all of the errors and warnings encountered by the readers on your Internet sites. Several examples of what you may find in this type of a log are: broken links that lead to non-existing files, pages that were not processed adequately by the web server, which generated an error/warning message for the visitor, and attempts from unauthorized IP addresses to reach the website or its administration area. Every entry in the error log offers the exact date and time the event took place, the visitor’s IP address, the precise directory path within the hosting account to the site or file which had a difficulty and the reason for the error to appear in the first place. Analyzing an error log will enable you to discover and fix problems on your site, which could improve the functionality of the site and the users’ experience.

Error Log Viewer in Shared Hosting

The Hepsia Control Panel, offered with our shared hosting accounts, shall make it easy to generate and view an error log for any website that you have within your account. Once you log in, you need to navigate to the Access/Error Logs section and click on the On/Off button for the Internet site that you would like to keep track of. The button is available for every domain name which you have hosted and each subdomain which you have created, so you can get a detailed log for each of them individually, as a way to be able to check out the websites for problems easier. A second click on the very same button will disable the feature, but you'll still be able to get the log by clicking on the Download link, that's available in the exact same section. If required, you can use software on your PC to process the raw web server info for statistical purposes.

Error Log Viewer in Semi-dedicated Servers

Enabling the generation of error logs for each of your websites will be extremely simple if you work with a semi-dedicated server account on our cutting-edge website hosting platform. This requires a single click in the Access/Error Logs section of our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with the semi-dedicated accounts, so you don't need to possess any previous experience with a hosting service. Our system shall start gathering up the raw data quickly and you may save it to your computer by simply clicking on the Download button, which is located in the very same section of the Control Panel. If you would like to use human-readable charts and prepare functionality reports, you can process the downloaded files with some software on your computer system. The error log generation can be deactivated just as easily if you don't need reports for your websites.
