That's actually a good point there that I can take away from this.
I actually don't have anything set to send me a log of code issues,
only when an error is caused (and, of course, anything server-related,
but that's a different point entirely).
Simple enough... put the following in a file, and add a cron job.
#!/usr/bin/php -qC
<?php
if( !isset( $argv[1] ) || !isset( $argv[2] ) || !isset( $argv[3] ) )
{
echo "Usage: {$argv[0]} <subject> <email> <path>\n";
exit( 1 );
}
$subject = $argv[1];
$email = $argv[2];
$path = $argv[3];
$content = implode( '', file( $path ) );
if( trim( $content ) === '' )
{
$content = 'NO ERRORS TODAY!!!';
}
mail( $email, $subject, $content );
?>
I used to have something similar to this until someone uploaded a script
that started writing to the error log like mad. Overnight my poor little
script tried to load a 240meg log file into memory and email it to me. I
now use a simple bash script that pipes the log to the mail command -
much safer.
Should probably say that it also renames the log file, graceful's
Apache, zips the old log and moves it to an archive file server. Rob's
script above, used without something that starts a new log will result
in ever-increasing emails.
