Sorry Alain, Distro is Suse 10.3. Wont happen again.
I ran that script and its very comprehensive. The php.ini is in
/etc/php5/apache2. Copy attached.
One interesting bit is that I setup:
display_errors = on
in the correct php.ini but phpinfo() still reports as off. I rebooted after
checking the ini file and its still reported as off.
I have also set the sendmail_from directive to may email address but still
comes up as no value.
Error_log = php_errors but I have no idea where the file ends up. In any
case phpinfo() still reports it as no value.
Thanks for your help.
Walter

Depends on which distro you are using (do tell us) as to exactly they are,
but start by looking under /var/log.

You don't want to do that ...

Set:
display_errors = on
log_errors = On
error_reporting=E_ALL | E_STRICT
What is the value of error_log ?
Run a php script with: <?php phpinfo(); ?>
That will tell you which php.ini you are using.
Looks as if you are using debian (or ubuntu) ??
