The items in such a log entry are:
• The IP address of the machine where the request was coming from;
• The date and time when the request was received;
• The request method (GET or POST), the request URI and any request parameters;

The creation of the access.log file is by default deactivated for performance and space reasons.
Activating Creation of the access.log File
To activate creation of the access.log file:
1. Open the httpd.conf file.
This is the Apache server configuration file located in the Interplay Engine installation
directory, for example, C:\Program Files\Avid\Avid Interplay Engine\Data\Apache\conf
2. Remove the # from one of the two lines in the file that appear as follows:
#CustomLog logs/access.log common
or
#CustomLog logs/access.log combined
See the file itself for further information.
Data Folder
The Data folder contains server-relevant configuration and data files, including the following
Apache modules and configuration files used by the Avid Interplay Preview Server and Avid
Interplay HTTP Server.
File Path (C:\Program
Files\Avid\Avid Interplay Engine) Description
Data\Apache\conf\httpd.conf The configuration file for the Apache web
server.
