An error log is a collection of info that features all the errors and warnings encountered by the guests on your websites. Various examples of what you could find in this type of a log are: broken links that lead to non-existing files, pages which were not processed adequately by the hosting server, which caused an error/warning message for the website visitor, and attempts from unauthorized IP addresses to get to the website or its administration area. Each entry inside the error log contains the exact time and date the event took place, the visitor’s IP address, the exact directory path inside the hosting account to the site or file which had a difficulty and the reason for the error to appear to start with. Inspecting an error log will enable you to locate and fix issues on your website, which will raise the overall performance of the website and the users’ experience.

Error Log Viewer in Shared Hosting

The Hepsia CP, which comes with our shared hosting accounts, will make it very easy to generate and check out an error log for any site that you have within your account. After you log in, you need to go to the Access/Error Logs section and click on the On/Off button for the Internet site that you need to keep tabs on. The button is available for each and every domain you have hosted and each subdomain you have created, so you can get a detailed log for each and every one of them separately, in order to be able to check the sites for problems easier. A second click on the exact same button will deactivate the feature, but you will still be able to get the log by clicking on the Download link, that's available inside the same section. When necessary, you can use software on your laptop or computer to process the raw server data for statistical purposes.
