An error log is a deposition of information which contains all of the errors and warnings encountered by the readers on your websites. Numerous examples of what you could find in such a log are: broken links that lead to non-existing files, pages which were not processed properly by the web server, which caused an error/warning message for the visitor, and attempts from unauthorized IP addresses to reach the site or its admin area. Every entry within the error log contains the exact date and time the event occurred, the visitor’s IP, the specific directory path inside the hosting account to the site or file which had a difficulty and the reason for the error to appear in the first place. Checking out an error log will permit you to locate and correct problems on your website, which could raise the overall performance of the Internet site and the users’ experience.
Error Log Viewer in Shared Web Hosting
The Hepsia Control Panel, offered with our shared web hosting accounts, will make it really easy to generate and view an error log for any Internet site that you have within your account. After you log in, you will need to check out the Access/Error Logs section and click on the On/Off button for the site that you intend to monitor. The button is available for each domain name that you have hosted and each subdomain which you have set up, so you can get a comprehensive log for each and every one of them separately, so that you can be able to examine the websites for problems simplier and easier. A second click on the same exact button will deactivate the function, but you shall still be able to get the log by clicking on the Download link, that's available within the very same section. When necessary, you can use software on your personal computer to process the raw hosting server data for statistical purposes.
