Hello everybody, I have chosen this list because my problem is related to one particular style of php installation. At least I think so. I'm running php 5.2.11 and plesk 9.2.3, php through fastCGI. My problem is that, since error_log is unset, php passes on any errors to the webserver (-handler). This fills up my logs with hundreds of MBytes of Notices every day, even though error_reporting is set to 6135 (notices shouldn't be logged). So error_reporting appears to be ignored when error_log is unset and php is run through fastcgi. Any idea how I can fix that? I unfortunately can't change error_log to the appropriate path, because the fastcgi user doesn't have access to the log directory... Here is an example log: [Mon Oct 26 00:57:52 2009] [warn] mod_fcgid: stderr: PHP Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in /srv/www/vhosts/XXXX/httpdocs/ x3/inc/shopstat_functions.inc.php on line 82 Thanks so much in advance, -- Cheers, Max GNU/Linux - User #477672 PGP: 0x6C29B594

I believe that the reporting level is only used for errors displayed in the browser window, not to the ones that are logged.

The error_reporting setting controls both logged and displayed errors. @Max ... is it possible your application is resetting error_reporting after you set it manually? Maybe try a recursive grep on the source tree for error_reporting. Cheers, Rob. -- http://www.interjinn.com Application and Templating Framework for PHP
