Description:
------------
Since php 5.3.9 released with any variation of config parameters php-fpm don't send php script errors/warnings to nginx. Reading logs on one frontend which contains get request, referrer, backend host is very simply. Pleas add the ability to send stderr to frontend when error_log is undefined.

I confirm this deficiency: php5-fpm 5.3.9+ prevents fpm passing error_log output  
to the web server's error log via SAPI. 

I encounter this issue using nginx 1.0.11, but it is also present with older 
nginx releases. The problem is encountered even with 777 permissions on the 
logs. If I roll back to php5-fpm_5.3.8 (keeping the same configs), it starts 
working again. I would like fpm STDERR to output to the virtual host's error log 
(this was the default behavior before).

A sample php.ini/php-fpm.conf is attached:

Add patch for 5.3.10.

It simple, not so right, because I think this functionality need move to zlog_ex, 
but it works for me.

If anybody can review it and test, would be nice.

confirmed on php v5.3.10
 [2012-03-15 06:38 UTC] prinbra at gmail dot com
in fact, set display_errors to On, we can still view the error message, but the message didn't go to nginx error log when display_errors is set to Off.
test confirmed that the same setting works fine on php 5.3.8

"Me too", on FreeBSD 7.3 with nginx-1.0.14,1 and php5-5.3.10.
 [2012-03-28 14:45 UTC] kustodian at gmail dot com
Exact same problem on Centos 6.2 with a custom build PHP 5.3.10. I reverted back to 5.3.8 since I need to have PHP errors in the Nginx error.log.
 [2012-03-29 08:10 UTC] bitmand at gmail dot com
Same here on 5.3.9 and .10 on apache. Errors used to go to apache error log, but 
after 5.3.9 nothing gets logged.

I wonder if the change is actually by design, according to the php-fpm 
documentation for "catch_workers_output" is states that "If not set, stdout and 
stderr will be redirected to /dev/null according to FastCGI specs."

But it would definitely be great with and option to throw errors to stderr again.
 [2012-03-29 09:36 UTC] kustodian at gmail dot com
I wouldn't mind that change, but setting "catch_workers_output = yes" doesn't work for me with PHP 5.3.10 and Nginx 1.0.14 on Centos 6.2.
 [2012-04-04 12:58 UTC] tobi at portfolio dot hu
The same here, I tried every php.ini and php-fpm.conf log setups, nothing works 
with Nginx 1.0.11 + PHP 5.3.10 FastCGI, even setting catch_workers_output = yes 
does not 
work.
I dont know why this functionality was cutted out but our sites use logging via 
stderr + nginx, please solve it.
 [2012-04-23 19:27 UTC] silvio dot ventres at gmail dot com
Tracked the change through git/svn.

There is a zlog facility in php-fpm which provides output of operational errors, 
while fastcgi error logging facility is used to output application level errors.

You can see how merging those into a single zlog which works on both seems like 
a good idea, but currently zlog does not even know what fpm is, having no access 
to fpm/fcgi variables or functions.

So then, a patch "generalized" the behavior, and now all logs go through zlog.
Unfortunately, zlog has no means of transporting the errors through fastcgi 
interface, and so fastcgi logging was lost.

This is the patch in question: http://git.php.net/?p=php-
src.git;a=commitdiff;h=7fc36a5210e3066ad9b1ddff2e142e7a971ae1e9

The solution is either to revert this patch, or, which was probably the goal of 
the patch submitter, complete the zlog facility so it supports FastCGI natively.

Since it doesn't seem like anyone fixed the zlog facility for half a year (since 
October 2011), it does seem simpler to revert the patch, or at least set it up 
as an option...

This is a showstopper for us; we've had to revert back to 5.3.8 so that we can 
trace and debug our application in both production and development.

I've released 2 patches (for 5.3 and 5.4) .

Can you please test them and validate them on your side so that I can push them 
?

I've enhanced the zlog sublibrary to add the possibility to set an "external 
logger". In our case, the new function sapi_cgi_log_fastcgi() in fpm_main.c will 
send any messages (PHP and FPM) back to the fastcgi client no matter what the 
debug level is.

thx

I applied the patch against 5.3.12, and it appears to be working.

Does this mean the fix will go live in the official 5.3.14 release?

Any news about when this will see a release? Maybe 5.3.15 ? 5.4.5?

yes this fix will go live in the next 5.3 and 5.4 release.

Is there a work around for us that are stuck on 5.3.10?

you can patch that patch your self.. if you really want to insist to 5.3.10
