Hello,
I'm using CentOS release 5.5 x86_64 with the stock php-5.1.6-27.el5 and would like to redirect PHP messages into /var/log/httpd/php_log
First I tried adding that file name to /etc/php.ini: error_log = "/var/log/httpd/php_log" and restarted httpd, but the file didn't appear. I've touched it and changed owner to apache.apache, but that didn't help.
Then I've changed that line to error_log = syslog and now I get the messages in /var/log/messages:
Jul 29 21:29:24 hXXX httpd: PHP Notice: Undefined index: REMOTE_ADDR in /var/www/html/odnoklassniki/index.php on line 44 Jul 29 21:29:45 hXXX httpd: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /var/www/html/odnoklassniki/index.php on line 44
I still would like to move those message to a separate file though, so I've added the following line to /etc/syslog.conf and reloaded syslogd service:
httpd.* /var/log/httpd/php_log
but the file is still empty. Any hints please?
Thank you Alex

Selinux issue?

So you think the "httpd.*" line in syslog.conf is correct?

No, it's incorrect.
Syslog filters based on facility and priority. "httpd" is not a known facility. "man 5 syslog.conf" will list the available facilities. I see no quick reference to what facility php is using, but if I had to hazard a guess I'd say it was "daemon"; the priority remains in question, though.
Due to potential for DOS I'd not use syslog for this, however; I would use error_log pointing to an accessible path, making whatever selinux changes may be required.

It's a bit tricky setting up PHP error logging to a seperate file. This works for me on 32bit, Centos 5.5 and Fedora 12, and previous Fedora versions.
Here are my settings:
SELinux disabled at boot time.
/etc/php.ini file:
; Besides displaying errors, PHP can also log errors to locations such as a ; server-specific log, STDERR, or a location specified by the error_log ; directive found below. While errors should not be displayed on productions ; servers they should still be monitored and logging is a great way to do that. ; Default Value: Off ; Development Value: On ; Production Value: On ; http://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.log-errors log_errors = ON
; Set maximum length of log_errors. In error_log information about the source is ; added. The default is 1024 and 0 allows to not apply any maximum length at all. ; http://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.log-errors-max-... log_errors_max_len = 1024
; Do not log repeated messages. Repeated errors must occur in same file on same ; line unless ignore_repeated_source is set true. ; http://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.ignore-repeated... ignore_repeated_errors = Off
; Ignore source of message when ignoring repeated messages. When this setting ; is On you will not log errors with repeated messages from different files or ; source lines. ; http://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.ignore-repeated... ignore_repeated_source = Off
; Log errors to specified file. PHP's default behavior is to leave this value ; empty. ; http://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.error-log ; Log errors to syslog or specified file (Event Log on NT, not valid in Windows 95). ;error_log = syslog error_log = /var/log/apache/php_error_log
The file permissions for my php error log are:
[root@karsites apache]# ls -l php* -rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 91472 2010-07-31 08:00 php_error_log -rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 2008-05-29 13:30 php_error_log.skel -rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 2008-05-29 13:30 php_mail_log [root@karsites apache]#
If the PHP error log file is not set up correctly, then PHP will just output the errors to the apache error log file instead.

How about leaving it on and consult /var/log/audit/audit.log to see if selinux is interfering. I guess if there is any denial its just because your new logfile has the wrong context and you can easily change that with chcon.

I can assure you that you don't have to go the syslog way. Logging to a php errorlog file of your choice works just fine. Check the file permissions and check for selinux warnings.
