An access log is a comprehensive list of all the files that were accessed by the visitors of a particular Internet site. Every single file which was requested for some reason shall be listed, so if you have one page with 3 embedded images, one video and one embedded text file, for instance, the access log shall contain a total of six entries - one for any of the 6 files that were accessed when the website visitor opened the page. A log typically offers the file name and path, the date, plus the visitor’s OS, web browser and IP address. Occasionally you may also find the referrer websites that sent the visitors to your Internet site. The data which an access log file contains is in human-readable plain text format. It may be processed by special software on a desktop machine and used to write reports on the functionality of a site, independent of the web stats that your server may have created.
