How Logs Are Collected

[annie]

Just double checking this.

 

There are absolutely no logs through cpanel now. My domain name hasn't propagated yet (just changed DNS), and I thinking that must be why.

 

So, I can expect the logs to start up once the domain name has propagated, right?

Hi,

No propogation--> No http or FTP activity therefore no Logs.

 

However if one accesses the site through the Shared IP and views it it might add something there, Basically account is monitored for activites not the domain, but traffic through the domain name request everything from the Account itself.

 

Once your DNS records are fully updated you can notice all

http, ftp, incoming/outgoing mails gets added to respective log/stats.

There's been lots of activity already, but to me it looks to be due to limitations of cpanel. In that the logs are not the actual apache logs?

Access through the IP address will not be recorded correctly in the CPanel log files so that stats will not show.
