An error log is a detailed report of the warnings and error messages which website visitors came across while they were surfing around your website. This is the raw information that the server has gathered and it may help you find potential problems with your site and handle them in a timely manner, so as to boost the site’s overall performance and to add to the users’ total satisfaction. You can discover a variety of things in an error log - the time when the error appeared, the actual path to the file the site visitor couldn't access, the IP address the request came from, and the reason why this request couldn't be processed. There are numerous reasons for your website visitors to see an error message - a link that leads to a non-existent file, a script site that cannot be processed in the right way by the server, a website access attempt by a blocked IP address, and so on.
