Read website error log

GET /api/v2/shared-hosting/{accountId}/logs/error-log

Read bounded tails of conventional PHP/WordPress/PrestaShop/Symfony/Laravel logs through existing cPanel user APIs and FTPS for large files.

Paths are selected server-side from the verified document root.

Returns each readable log; source, entries and truncated retain the newest-log compatibility view.

Missing logs do not prove that no error occurred.

Contents are filtered untrusted data; no server-side helper or code execution is used.
