onlyican Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Hi All I am building a website and I basically want to be able to log my own Error Logging. This could be anything from a usual PHP Notice, An SQL Query failing, a 404 page or a user reaching an activity they should not have (For example, hitting a default: on a switch when they shouldn't have) I have 3 options that I can think off 1) MySQL 2) Email 3) File Write All have pros and cons MySQL - Pro - I can build an admin script to read the errors and display them for me to handle and mark when completed. MySQL - CON - What is the Queries fail for what ever reason (too many connections), then the query to log the error would also fail, thus I would never know Email: PRO - Should always work, I will know straight away Email: CON - Getting the data from an email to a user friendly screen, instead of clogging up my email box File Write - PRO - I can put the data into MySQL at any point, Should near enough always work File Write - CON - Other people could possibly see the the errors, which could give away directories or weaknesses in the web project. Does anyone have any suggestions? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/250684-create-my-own-error-logging/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
N-Bomb(Nerd) Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Personally, I would opt for email and file error logging.. in case one fails you still have the other log.
