An error log is a comprehensive report of the warnings and error messages that site visitors came across whilst they were surfing your Internet site. This is the raw information that the hosting server has generated and it may help you find potential problems with your website and solve them in a timely manner, so as to boost the site’s overall performance and to increase the users’ satisfaction. You will find several things in an error log - the time when the error occurred, the exact path to the file which the website visitor couldn't access, the IP the request came from, and the reason why this request cannot be processed. There are lots of reasons for your site visitors to see an error message - a link leading to a non-existent file, a script page that cannot be processed correctly by the web server, a website access attempt by a blocked IP address, and many others.
