Thanks for this post, it's good to have a nice overview of the error logging possibilities.

You should add one note there though:
the "error_log" directive logs to a specific file, and this file MUST be writable by the web server. Otherwise PHP only logs startup errors.

I run PHP on a Windows 2003 Server at work. Do you know if there's a way to make PHP report to a different system log other than the default "Application" event log? I'd love to move all of my PHP errors to their own log. For now though, I'm just using a file to trap the errors.

There are several log files. If you mean the log file specified in ";error_log = filename", there is no default. If not specified, and you turn on "log_errors" without specifying a log file in "error_log", then PHP will log errors to the Apache error log.

"error_log" itself can be set to anywhere, including outside the PHP installation path.

Where is the log file stored by default? Is it possible to change the path of this file putting it outside the php instalation path?
