PHP Error Logs on IIS 7.5/Windows Server 2008

Question

I\'m confused about where I should be looking for a log file containing php errors on a Windows 2008 Server running IIS 7.5 (I\'m more familiar with the Mac OS X setup for this)

Answer 1

In the php.ini (you can find this under "c:\program files (x86)\php\{PHP Version}") change these settings:

log_errors = On

Then set error_log to syslog for the windows event log:

error_log = syslog

Or specify a location on disk such as:

error_log = C:\Windows\temp\php_errors.log

Make sure that the error_log or log_error values aren't being set elsewhere in the file.
