Error messages contain sensitive information which is useful to hackers, so a user should set display_errors to Off on the live Web site.
- log_errors: This Controls whether error messages are recorded in an error log. Set to On to log errors in an error log, or Off to disable error logging.
- error_log : This Specifies the full path of the log file to log errors to. The default is usually the system log or the Web server’s error log. In Windows the message is logged in the Event Log).
display_errors = Off
ini_set( “display_errors”, “Off” );
