how does error logging work in dolphin?

Hi guys.. how does error logging work in dolphin? Another issue i am facing is that i get this internal server error message on my godaddy hosted site.. i want to be able to see the errors on the browser screen. I have made the following changes in the php.ini settings on godaddy.. error_reporting = ~E_ALL,  display_errors = ON, log_errors  = on. However when i see the files under log, they really don have anything of use.. its like a regular log.. something like a time stamp or somethin.. no exceptions logged.. 

First, if you want to get working site, forget about godaddy.

Go to header.inc.php and put error_reporting = ~E_ALL at the end of it, should show all errors and warnings.

Hi.. i guess u mean error_reporting(~E_ALL);.. yes i added this at the end of header.inc.php but still gettin custom error, internal sever error.. not the actual error.. anything else that needs to be done?

Internal Server error is not a PHP error. So making changes to php's error reporting is not going to help you there.

It is a web server error. Apache in most cases. It is a generic error that is given when the web server cannot be more specific. Usually caused by a configuration problem. Most common locations of configuration problems are in areas where the end user is able to change things such as the .htaccess files.

But yea. As Boonexexpert pointed out. Dolphin and GoDaddy are a bad combination. Their hosting is crap. I dropped them years ago for anything other than simple websites.

Thanks.. so is there any error in my htaccess file? Deano i am getting this error while trying to login using ur fb connect.. I am also mailing you the fb app settings to see if anything is amiss there.. 

following is the htaccess in the root dir..

if the server is sensing an exception, it could throw it in the browser right? if i cud just see it, it would be simpler to debug.. just able to get it to do so.. 

missed the *not.. not able to get the browser to show the exception :)

I see nothing wrong with that htaccess file.

As for FB. I also am not seeing a internal server error. Instead i am seeing a FB Error. Your FB app is not configured correctly. I sent you a link to my video on how to properly set that up.

But, my FB app has never caused a internal server error anywhere else, so i seriously doubt that is the cause of it.
