Here is an example of an access log using the flexible logging format:
The access log in the flexible logging format looks similar to the access log
using the common logfile format.
The error log file contains errors the server has encountered after the log file
was created; it also contains information about the server, such as when the
server was started. Incorrect user authentication is also recorded in the error
log. Use the error log to find broken URL paths or missing files.

jane was incorrect.
