Hi,

I am new to PHP and LimeSurvey.

How do I add log message (any log utility class) in LimeSurvey?

Where do I set and find the log output file?

many thanks.

Hi, are you talking about LimeSurvey v1.x or v2?

If v1.x have a look for "$debug" and set this parameter to "2" in your config.php:
$debug = 2;

docs.limesurvey.org/tiki-index.php?page=...allation#Development

thanks!

I installed 1.7 and tried to run the admin.php but get a "Premature end of script headers" in the apache error log. And there is no more message in the same log even when I change the $debug setting to 2.

The document in your link says "set the PHP error reporting to E_ALL", where is this E_ALL going to be sent? same as the apache log file?

I followed the installation and did not see any problems, so I decided to debug a bit myself. I was wondering if there is any existing log utility built inside LimeSurvey I can use?

Setting $debug = 2; and E_ALL has nothing to do with the apache server logs but only outputs error messages at the browser.

There is no logging mechanism. Only things which can be logged are IP-Adresses of users and some similiar stuff. Check manual -> creating a new survey -> Notification & Data Management
