Debian, ISPConfig 3.0.3.3, mod_fcgi+suExec, PHP not showing errors

[radim_h]

Hello,

maybe somebody can give me some advice.

i have started migrate pages from ISPC2 to ISPC3, all new pages are created under mod_fcgi + SuEXEC

Now i have a problem, webpages are not showing any php errors
it doesnt matter what i set in
/etc/php5/cgi/php.ini or /etc/php5/apache2/php.in section error_reporting
any of choices
Default Value: E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
Development Value: E_ALL | E_STRICT
Production Value: E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED

is not showing any error for pages in browser
?

Do the pages work or do you see just a white page? If you get just a white page, then take a look at the error.log of the website.

If you migrated the pages, please check that all files and folders are owned by the web user and client group of the website, if the files are owned by root, then php-fcgi will fail with a security error in the error.log and show just a white page.

i have migrated pages by FTP so owner is good..

1.
when there is error, like bad mysql connection config, page is just white, instead of showing error defined in PHP code, as for example "wrong SQL connection"
i'd like the web pages showing this error...

2.
error.log seems to work correctly
only weird thing is that it is full of messages which werent shown under mod_php, as
[warn] Undefined index:
[warn] Undefined variable:

can i show just
[error] messages in error log ?

again setting of erorr reporting in php doesn't seems to do any change


does it all something to do with fcgi + suExec ?

No, I dont think so.

The error_reporting setting in php ini defines just which errors are reported and not where they are reported. Since Debian 6, error reporting on screen is off by default to protect the web applications. To turn it on, edit the php.ini and change:

display_errors = Off

to:

display_errors = On

and restart apache.

thank you for info!

[radim_h]

just for info

Here is something about
http://php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php

i was right about it
When using PHP with Apache mod_fcgid and "log_errors = On", PHP errors get logged into Apache ErrorLog file with severity "warn". No matter what severity the PHP error itself has, the severity in the Apache log is "warn".

some solutions on the page had no time for testing...
