Apache logs are usually accessed via FTP. From the Manage Sites screen click Manage > Add Site, complete the information on the first screen and click Next. Set the log location to FTP, the log wildcard to access*, and the log format to apache NCSA extended log format. Complete the section below for the FTP server, login credentials, and directory. Click Next twice and Save.

Important Note: When logging into most Unix like systems via FTP, the user will have access to only his home directory; ie.. /home/username. Apache usually writes its’ logs to a restricted location such as /var/httpd/logs/ or something similar so, you will normally have to copy access_log to the user's directory periodically via script. Creating a unique file name for each copy is recommended, preferable by dat; ie access_log.8.17.05 or equivalent.
