Error logging

[runnerjp]

Hi,

 

I need to create a PHP script that writes php errors (Warning notices etc.) to  MySQLdatabase. I know PHP has a built in error log function but im on a shared hosting site and cant chnage these types of files nor have any access ot them. Any ideas where I could start?

 

I already have error reporting enabled at the start of my scripts,

 

PHP Code:

<?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);
?>

 

The data i was thinkin of is:

Date/time

Page

error

Error line in code?

Ip of user

username

 

then if an error is added to db send me an email so i know.

 

Then rather then disply " there is an error in you syntax" ect it just prompts them to an error page of my own choosing.

 

This way i wont show information which could lead to security holes!

 

 

Thanks!

 

Jarratt.

The location of your error log can be set quite simply within a .htaccess file or via ini_set. Obviously you didn't check the manual before posting this uneducated comment.

I'm not sure how that is going to happen.

 

You may need to parse the error log and insert it into a database that way. Error logs should generally be kept very simple so as they don't create errors themselves.

well really i just want to get the error, find out who caused it and where  and just show them a message like "you have made an error" without showing the actuall error.

not

"you have made an error"

it should be

"The server encountered an error"

cause not all error is made by users.
