Re: Error logging

I've had the same weird problem before, and eventually I discovered that the error_reporting was set on the script level (eg in the PHP page) using the function error_reporting. The thing is any setting in your php pages would overwrite the php.ini setting (as far as I know). -- itoctopus - http://www.itoctopus.com "Clark Alexander" <calexander@neit.edu> wrote in message news:C284A779.15E6%calexander@neit.edu... > We have the following php.ini settings: > error_reporting = E_ALL > display_errors = Off > display_startup_errors = Off > log_errors = On > log_errors_max_len = 1024 > ignore_repeated_errors = Off > ignore_repeated_source = Off > report_memleaks = On > track_errors = Off > > on a SuSE 10.1 server and the errors are being logged to > /var/log/apache2/error_log > (although I can't seem to find a setting that is making that happen.) > > parse errors ARE being logged to this file and that would be extremely > useful information for students to be able to have when trying to find > problems in their scripts.
