I was receiving a 500 internal server error on one of my CPanel sites
earlier tonight but the apache error logs in CPanel admin for that user
showed nothing. Instead, I had to locate the global apache error logs.
This information may help others so I’ve listed some of the most useful
CPanel/WHM log file locations below:
Location : /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log
Description : All exceptions caught by httpd along with standard error output from CGI applications are logged here..
The first place you should look when httpd crashes or you incur errors when accessing website.
Domain Access Logs:
Location : /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domain.com
Description : General access log file for each domain configured with cPanel.
Apache Access Logs:
Location : /usr/local/apache/logs/access_log
Description : Complete web server access log records all requests processed by the server.
Location : /var/lib/mysql/$(hostname).err
Description : This path could vary, but is generally located in /var/lib/mysql. Could also be located at /var/log/mysqld.log
