Application Launcher

The PHP error log (php-errors.log) records any issues that occur during the PHP processing portion of a page load. Issues reported here are usually caused by an application’s code, configuration, or content. The log records issues with requests from both browsers and the command line, unlike the FPM error log, which records infrastructure-level issues with the management of PHP processes from web requests only.

Custom PHP scripts that execute separately from Drupal must include the Acquia require line, which sets the logging location, in order for errors to be logged to the PHP error log.

For a list of log files handled by Cloud Platform, including information about accessing the log files, log file retention, and their locations, see About Cloud Platform logging. You can also review information about how to stream PHP error log entries in real time from your browser.

Note for log forwarding users

Acquia’s log forwarding feature adds information to the beginning of each line that is forwarded to an external service. For more information, see .
