Php error logging

[Philwn]

will the following code work to log any php errors i may have on the page this code is included?

 

ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('log_errors',TRUE);
ini_set('html_errors',FALSE);
ini_set('error_log','./error_log.txt');
ini_set('display_errors',FALSE);

Did you try it? (seems redundant to me. Read through it again and you'll see what I mean)

 

also, what do yo mean 'log any php errors' ? log them to a file, or show them on the page that contains the errors ?

[Philwn]

log them to a file, ive been suggested to log any php errors to a file so I can see if this is the case of my too many processes?. I dont have access to the php.ini file but have been told if I create one in the same folder as my files it will work but there seems to be alot of confusing information about logging php errors and where the php.ini is.

[WebStyles]

have you simply checked your logs? chances are all errors are already being logged to file.

because the scripting was disabled earlier the logs didnt work but they are now. The logs shows quite alot of errors. some of which are the following:

 

[Wed Sep 21 11:08:19 2011] [error] [client 77.103.33.216] PHP Warning:  fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/sites/myurl.co.uk/public_html/Range.php on line 140, referer: http://www.myurl.co.uk/Range/En/Accessories/Accessories/

    fwrite($fp, ob_get_contents());

yet if I visit that page the cached file is shown which means fwrite worked at some point?

fclose($fp);

while($row_QA = mysql_fetch_array($list_QA))

this is because there are no results so I guess i need to just say if (mysql_fetch_array(list_QA)<1) die or something?

 

code for whole page:

      // Serve from the cache if it is younger than $cachetime

      if (file_exists($cachefile) && (time() - $cachetime
         < filemtime($cachefile))) 
      {

         include($cachefile);


         echo "<!-- Cached ".date('jS F Y H:i', filemtime($cachefile))." -->";
