Hello. I even asked A.I. about this issues and cannot resolve this problem ive had since yesterday... ive been working on a script for a week or so.. - Scheduled task / cron job. But if i activate manually, i see output to screen. At the end of one script, I include a new php file and activate a function.. include_once ("INS_NwSQL.php"); echo "GO TO do_new_scan()<br />\n"; flush(); do_new_scan(); sleep(2); // optional short delay between rounds Everthings working fine, but the all of a sudden - my new function will not work (no output to screen, No log files saved - just blnk - NO HTML output at all.. On my screen, i do see the output of:- echo "GO TO do_new_scan()<br />\n"; However NOTHING after then.. Ive gone through php code validators - no errors, ive got this in my new / second file (just immediately after the function activates) error_reporting(E_ALL); $t=date("Ymd"); $path =$GLOBALS["BASEPATH"]."/logs/GB_ERROR-$t.txt"; ini_set('display_errors', 1); ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1); error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('error_log',$path); //override php's default error log directory has anyone got ideas as to force some output (or errors) to the screen / log file ? -- Gordon.
