How to do error logging in CodeIgniter (PHP) - nathanjame - 05-08-2018
I want error logging in PHP CodeIgniter. How do I enable error logging?
I have some questions:
- What are all the steps to log an error?
- How is an error log file created?
- How to push the error message into log file (whenever an error occurs)?
- How do you e-mail that error to an email address?

There is a built-in function to log errors called log_message Read about it HERE.
There is additional information about error handling on that page.
There is not any built-in mechanism to email logged errors though.

CodeIgniter has some error logging functions built-in. CodeIgniter error logging is mostly relatable to php error logging if you want to create it through code.
Make your /application/logs folder writable
In /application/config/config.php set
$config['log_threshold'] = 1;
or use a higher number, depending on how much detail you want in your logs
Use log_message('error', 'Some variable did not contain a value.');
To send an email you need to extend the core CI_Exceptions class method log_exceptions().
