PHP 的错误日志在 XAMPP 中位于何处?

\xampp\apache\logs\error.log, where xampp is your installation folder. If you haven't changed the error_log setting in PHP (check with phpinfo()), it will be logged to the Apache log.

Look in your configuration file and search for the error_log setting. Or use phpinfo() to find this setting.

I found it in: \xampp\php\logs\php_error_log

For Mac users, XAMPP version 1.7.3:

/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/logs/error_log

For anyone searching for the PHP log file in XAMPP for Ubuntu, it is:

/opt/lampp/logs/php_error_log

Most probably it will be having a big size (mine was about 350 MBs) and it slowed down my text editor when I opened the file. If you do not care about all the previous logs you can empty the file easily by simply going to the terminal and then writing these three lines one by one:

sudo su
cd /opt/lampp/logs/
> php_error_log

And newer logs will be easy and fast to open now. The angle bracket empties the file (Works with bash only, doesn't work on zsh).

For my issue, I had to zero out the log:

sudo bash -c ' > /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/logs/php_error_log '

You can also open the XAMPP control panel and click on the button Logs:

Enter image description here

\xampp\php\logs did not exist at all for me - for whatever reason.

I simply had to create a folder in \xampp\php\ called logs and then the php_error_log file was created and written to.

\xampp\apache\logs\error.log is the default location of error logs in PHP.

By default, the XAMPP PHP log file path is in /xampp_installation_folder/php/logs/php_error_log, but I noticed that sometimes it would not be generated automatically. Maybe it could be a Windows account write permission problem? I am not sure, but I created the logs folder and php_error_log file manually and then PHP logs were logged in it finally.

As said in previous answers, you can find the PHP error log in Windows. In C:\xampp\apache\logs\error.log. You can easily display the last logs by tail -f .\error.log.

You can simply check your log path from phpMyAdmin.

Run this:

http://localhost/dashboard/

Now click PHPInfo (top right corner) or you can simply open this URL in your browser:

http://localhost/dashboard/phpinfo.php

Now search for "error_log"(without quotes). You will get the log path.

For Mac users, it can be found in:

/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/logs/php_error_log

In the current version I've just installed (8.0.11) the installer "forgets" to create the folder C:\xamppp\php\logs, perhaps by design but that is ApacheFriends for you😜. After creating the folder and restarting Apache the folder will be populated with a php_error_log file. No, not a php_error.log but php_error_log, becouse they are your friends.

Follow

Terminal

To keep seeing the last entry (much like *nix sh tail -f) use the following command:

Get-Content c:\xampp\php\logs\php_error_log -Wait

This will keep reading the file and display the last entries. Quite handy if you are debugging.

Code

You might be using vscode so why hot have the errors right at you finger tips. Create a file .vscode\tasks.json

{
  // See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
  // for the documentation about the tasks.json format
  "version": "2.0.0",
  "tasks": [
    {
      "label": "Monitor php errors",
      "type": "shell",
      "command": "Get-Content -Wait c:\\xampp\\php\\logs\\php_error_log",
      "runOptions": {
        "runOn": "folderOpen"
      }
    }
  ]

and allow it to run on start. Make sure you work on a folder, not single files, but you were doing that already, weren't you?
