An error log is a comprehensive report of the warnings and error messages that website visitors faced when they were looking through your site. This is the raw data that the server has accumulated and it can help you locate potential issues with your Internet site and handle them in a timely manner, as a way to enhance the site’s efficiency and to increase the users’ full satisfaction. You can find quite a few things in an error log - the time when the error occurred, the exact path to the file the visitor could not access, the IP address the request came from, and the reason why this request couldn't be processed. There are various reasons for your website visitors to see an error message - a link which leads to a non-existent file, a script site that cannot be processed in the correct way by the hosting server, a site access attempt by a blocked IP address, and so forth.
