PHP error log not updating

Question

My apache error log is located at /var/log/apache2/error.log . I've been using it to debug a simple PHP script I'm writing.

Now, suddenly it isn't catching anything. I've tried putting in known errors like calling functions that don't exist and nothing shows up.

Answer 1

也许检查Apache仍然有权访问此文件夹和此文件。

Answer 2

Solved by restarting Apache. It turns out that I "broke" it myself by editing the log file.
Note to self: Do not do that.
