How to activate and review the Access and Error Logs for your hosts through your Control Panel

Next enter your login details in the username and password fields of the Members Area Login form. Then hit the Login button to go straight to your Control Panel.

As soon as you log into the web hosting Control Panel - click on the Access & Error Logs icon located in the Live Stats section. This is where you can keep track of the Access & Error Logs for each one of your hosts from.

To do that - simply mark the checkboxes of the hosts that you wish to enable Access and Error Logs tracking for. You can select one of your hosts or all of them, depending on your particular needs. As soon as you are done with your selection - click on the Apply button to confirm it. A green pop-up box will confirm for you that the Access and Error Logs have been activated successfully for the selected hosts.

You will need to allow up to 1 hour for the web server to update the changes online.

This will download for you the Access and Error Logs for this file. Once downloaded - the Access/Error Logs can be opened with any text editing software including Notepad. The comprehensive information contained in the text file will allow you to see from which particular IP addresses your hosting account and websites are accessed, as well as what their hostnames are and what user agents are used.

You can check the Access Logs for each one of your hosts in the same way. Well, that's it! Now you know how to activate and check the Access and Error Logs for your web hosting account through your Control Panel.
