An error log is a comprehensive report of the warnings and error messages that visitors encountered as they were looking through your site. This is the raw info that the web server has produced and it could help you locate potential problems with your website and resolve them in a timely manner, as a way to enhance the site’s performance and to increase the users’ total satisfaction. You will find many things within an error log - the time when the error appeared, the specific path to the file the visitor could not access, the IP the request came from, and the reason this request cannot be processed. There are lots of reasons for your website visitors to see an error message - a link that leads to a non-existent file, a script site that can't be processed adequately by the server, a site access attempt by a blocked IP address, and so on.
