error_log per Virtual Host?


If somebody comes looking it should look like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>    ServerName example.com    DocumentRoot /var/www/domains/example.com/html    ErrorLog /var/www/domains/example.com/apache.error.log    CustomLog /var/www/domains/example.com/apache.access.log common    php_flag log_errors on    php_flag display_errors on    php_value error_reporting 2147483647    php_value error_log /var/www/domains/example.com/php.error.log</VirtualHost>

This is for development only since display_error is turned on. You will notice that the Apache error log is separate from the PHP error log. The good stuff is in php.error.log.

Take a look here for the error_reporting key http://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.error-reporting


To set the Apache (not the PHP) log, the easiest way to do this would be to do:

<VirtualHost IP:Port>   # Stuff,   # More Stuff,   ErrorLog /path/where/you/want/the/error.log</VirtualHost>

If there is no leading "/" it is assumed to be relative.

I usually just specify this in an .htaccess file or the vhost.conf on the domain I'm working on. Add this to one of these files:

php_admin_value error_log "/var/www/vhosts/example.com/error_log"
