php-errors.log does not exist or is inaccessible.

Is /wp-content/logs/php-errors.log the actual, unedited log file name that the plugin displays? The file name is incorrect, which is probably the source of the problem. It’s a relative path, but it contains a leading forward slash that makes it look like an absolute path.

Please set error_log to the full path of the log file. For example, if WordPress is installed in /home/xyz/public_html, the log file name would be something like /home/xyz/public_html/wp-content/logs/php-errors.log.

ahhhh yea was the path that wasnt complete

thanks for the great support janis

I must be some special kind of dunce! I really can’t figure out to specify the absolute path. I must have tried all the permutations by now and still get the ‘does not exist or is inaccessib;e’ error message.

The fullest path I have used is: “/home/html/globalfarmplatform.org/wp-content/logs/php-errors.log”. (When I look at the directory structure using Filezilla, I see all of this other than “/home”. Is it necessary?)

File permissions for directory wp-content/logs and file php-errors.log are both ‘0755’.

Am growing desperate .. any hints or suggestions?

Ignore, ignore, ignore!

I’ve just used the tip in “Three ways to monitor PHP errors” and found the absolute path. Needless to say it was non-obvious. Wel, at least to me, evidently!
