To view entries in Drupal s own internal log system  the watchdog database table   go to http   example com admin reports dblog  These can include Drupal-specific errors as well as general PHP or MySQL errors that have been thrown   Use the watchdog   function to add an entry to this log from your own custom module   When Drupal bootstraps it uses the PHP function set error handler   to set its own error handler for PHP errors  Therefore  whenever a PHP error occurs within Drupal it will be logged through the watchdog   call at admin reports dblog  If you look for PHP fatal errors  for example  in  var log apache error log and don t see them  this is why  Other errors  e g  Apache errors  should still be logged in  var log  or wherever you have it configured to log to
