How to Log Errors in PHP | PHP Error Reporting and Debugging for Beginners | Log Website Errors

Today I will teach you how to log website errors using PHP, in order to show error messages in a better looking way, instead of directly inside the browser. 🙂 Showing PHP errors inside the browser is not a good security practice, and luckily we can do it in a smarter way, where only the developer can see them!

Awesome content would be great to do a video on the useful PHP extensions in apps such as visual studio code and sublime etc. Maybe even WordPress.

Hi Dani, nice tuts! can we do something like this for fatal errors? thanks

[mikeh]

Great tutorial, thank you! Newbie question: if I have a main PHP script that calls (e.g. require_once) a few other PHP scripts, should this error reporting code be used in each PHP script, or is it sufficient to use it only on the main script?

Hi dani
i have try your code. but error messages dont store on my file.

[TheNextTechG]

Hey Dani sir! could you make an updated JS tutorial also🙏

[iosifpuha]

I got everything you said and it's greatly explained but, what if the error was not an "undelcared variable error", but a fatal error like that one where you tried to divide by 0? Can that error also be handled by our custom error handler? If yes, how? I tried and it just goes on display and nothing is logged in the file

[stephenokoduwa]

Just to note: Whenever logging into a file, it is important to have your errors in JSON format for later when you need the data structured or used in an interface

[deitunegold]

Hello master, can you do something on Laravel Framework?😢. It’s well much required nowadays

[elenacarbonell]

I'm sorry, I've followed the tutorial to the letter, but it still does not write the errors in the error_log.txt file. I wonder if I'm missing anything? I'm also using XAMPP while learning PHP.
