Dear Markwaugh,

Have you set the access logs to run in the Raw Log Manager? Please check if you enabled it.

As clearly specified in the page itself, try connecting to ftp server through a ftp-client will be easier for you.

Hi Mickey,

Thank you for your information.
I am sorry i do not have SSH access, i run from a reseller account.
How do i set the access logs to run in the Raw Log Manager ? how do i check ?

Thank u for ur time anyway ... Have a good day.

In cpanel there is a raw logs manager with the options to:

Archive Logs in your home directory at the end of each month
Remove the previous month's archived logs from your home directory at the end of each month.

The poster above recommends enabling the checkboxes. However I have the same problem with a user getting a DNS error.

On my personal site I have both boxes unchecked, and I can use internet explorer to use the links in cPanel and it will download the raw ftp logs just fine.

On my clients server who has the boxes checked, they (and me) get a DNS error when clicking on the links.

Does anyone know why this is?

Okay here is the solution to that error. Look at the link for the logs. It is missing the password from the url. This happens when you login to the account using the reseller or root password.

Login using the accounts actual password and it will work for you.
