Can't access error log in 2.64

Try showing only 5 records at a time with this link: ?menu=_error_log&perPage=5

Maybe it's running out of memory? 

Good catch, Mr Dave...

the perPage limit worked, and the last number of errors were in fact out of memory errors.

Since the error log seems to have a tendency to grow over time, is there any way that you can include a fixed per page limit of say 100 in the works for a future version update?

Or would you suggest a different approach?

Thanks as always,

Hmm, do you know what your memory limit is? 

It can log a lot of data, like if you load 50 megs of records into a variable.  It will log that.  And it's all getting loaded on the list page.  So there's definitely some optimizations there.  I'm not sure exactly what they'll be but we'll keep an eye on it.

Also, we're going to rename something like "Developer Log" or "Debug Log" so it's less scary for end users who have access to the Admin menu.  Do you think that would have helped for your client? 

Hi Dave,

The entry says 128MB

Renaming it to Developer log would be a bit less onerous

In CMSB V2.6.4 I've also added a check box in a single record table (called  "Organization Information") and added the code below to  /lib/menus/header_functions.php (based on your code suggestion in post 2236345) to allow me to easily hide or show the error log link in the admin menu.

Best,
