[ubuntu-za] LAMP vs Web server

[Darrel]

Hi Frank, It is 06:15 in the morning and I could not wait to check those
error logs. Well I realy must thank you because once again I have been
amazed by Ubuntu/Linux as an OS.
   I never realised that errors would not necessarily be visible in the
generated page. The logs from Apache in particular were very helpful.
   So not only did I sort out the original script but another as well.
Thank you,

Darrel Letley
