error_log per Virtual Host?

Question

On one Linux Server running Apache and PHP 5, we have multiple Virtual Hosts with separate log files. We cannot seem to separate the php error_log between virtu

Answer 1

Yes, you can try,

php_value error_log "/var/log/php_log" 

in .htaccess or you can have users use ini_set() in the beginning of their scripts if they want to have logging.

Another option would be to enable scripts to default to the php.ini in the folder with the script, then go to the user/host's root folder, then to the server's root, or something similar. This would allow hosts to add their own php.ini values and their own error_log locations.

Answer 2

Don't set error_log to where your syslog stuff goes, eg /var/log/apache2, because they errors will get intercepted by ErrorLog. Instead, create a subdir in your project folder for logs and do php_value error_log "/path/to/project/logs". This goes for both .htaccess files and vhosts. Also make sure you put php_flag log_errors on

Answer 3

Create Simple VirtualHost:

example hostname:- thecontrolist.localhost

1. C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

   127.0.0.1 thecontrolist.localhost in hosts file

2. C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf

   <VirtualHost *>
     ServerName thecontrolist.localhost
     ServerAlias thecontrolist.localhost
     DocumentRoot "/xampp/htdocs/thecontrolist"
     <Directory "/xampp/htdocs/thecontrolist">
       Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
       AllowOverride All
       Require local
     </Directory>
   </VirtualHost>

Answer 4

You can try:

    <VirtualHost myvhost:80>
       php_value error_log "/var/log/httpd/vhost_php_error_log"
    </Virtual Host>

But I'm not sure if it is going to work. I tried on my sites with no success.

Answer 5

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"
