An access log is a text file that contains a thorough list of all of the files accessed by your Internet site visitors. All the files that were requested in one way or another shall be included, so when you have a PHP script app and a website visitor opens only the home page, for example, you may find a lot of files inside the log. This is because there are resources on the home page that are embedded - parts of other Internet pages, images, and so on. All of these files will be listed in the access log, so you're able to get a detailed picture of the way your site works. The info is in plain text format, so the logs are frequently called "raw data" too. An access log provides the name of every requested file, the path to it, the date it was accessed, as well as the user’s IP address, Internet browser and OS. More info, like the referrer Internet site, is sometimes supplied as well. A log file can be processed by various desktop apps for statistical purposes as an addition to the web stats supplied by your web server.
