    Hello,

    after moving to different hosting provider I have problem to set up Error Log Monitor.

    It shows: The log file /home/html/xxxx.cz/logs/php.log does not exist or is inaccessible.

    I have edited wp-config to this:

    //Enable error logging.
    @ini_set(‘log_errors’, ‘On’);
    @ini_set(‘error_log’, ‘/home/html/xxxx.cz/public_html/www/wp-content/elm-error-logs/php-errors.log’);

    //Don’t show errors to site visitors.
    @ini_set(‘display_errors’, ‘Off’);
    if ( !defined(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’) ) {
    define(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false);
    }

    I have checked url (I have in wp-config) with my hosting provider and it is right. Why is Error Log Monitor showing different url (in backend)? What is wrong?

    Thanks you

    Tom

    The plugin gets the log file path from the active PHP configuration. If it’s showing a different path than what you set in your wp-config.php, that probably means the code in wp-config.php did not successfully change the PHP configuration. Some possible reasons could include:

    • The server configuration does not allow individual PHP scripts to change the error_log setting. Some hosts restrict PHP scripts in this way. This is something you might have to verify with the hosting provider.
    • The code is in the wrong place in the file. If it’s too far down, it might not work as expected.
    • Something else has changed the log file path. This is unlikely, but, in theory, just like you can use ini_set('error_log', '...') in wp-config.php, another plugin or theme could also call ini_set() in its own code and change the log file path to something else.
