An access log is a text file which contains a full list of all of the files accessed by your site visitors. All of the files which were requested in one way or another will be included, so if you have a PHP script application and a visitor opens just the home page, for example, you might find a lot of files inside the log. The reason is that there are components on the home page that are embedded - parts of other pages, pictures, etcetera. These files shall be listed inside the access log, so you're able to get a complete picture of the way your Internet site functions. The info is in plain text format, so the logs are sometimes referred to as "raw data" as well. An access log contains the name of every requested file, the path to it, the date it was accessed, plus the user’s IP address, browser and Operating System. Additional information, like the referrer website, is oftentimes included too. A log file may be processed by various desktop applications for statistical purposes as an addition to the web stats supplied by your server.
