Debugging Poweradmin

To help diagnose issues, you can enable various debug settings in your Poweradmin configuration. Below are the available debug settings and how to enable them.

Configuration Location

Debugging settings should be added to your config/settings.php file. If you're still using the legacy configuration in inc/config.inc.php, consider migrating to the new configuration format using the provided script:

php scripts/migrate-config.php

Available Debug Settings

1. PHP Error Reporting

To display PHP errors directly in the browser, add the following lines to your index.php or any other entry point file:

ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);

2. Logger Settings

Configure the logging settings in your config/settings.php:

return [
    // Other settings...

    'logging' => [
        'type' => 'native',    // Options: 'null', 'native'
        'level' => 'debug',    // Options: 'debug', 'info', 'notice', 'warning', 'error', 'critical', 'alert', 'emergency'
        // Other logging settings...
    ],

    // Other settings...
];

These settings are primarily used for logging authentication issues and other system events.

3. Database Debugging

Enable or disable database debugging to log detailed database operations and errors:

return [
    // Other settings...

    'database' => [
        // Other database settings...
        'debug' => true,    // Show all SQL queries
    ],

    // Other settings...
];

4. DNSSEC Debugging

Enable or disable DNSSEC debugging to log detailed DNSSEC operations and errors:

return [
    // Other settings...

    'dnssec' => [
        // Other DNSSEC settings...
        'debug' => true,    // Enable DNSSEC debug logging
    ],

    // Other settings...
];

5. LDAP Debugging

Enable or disable LDAP debugging to log detailed LDAP operations and errors:

return [
    // Other settings...

    'ldap' => [
        // Other LDAP settings...
        'debug' => true,    // Enable LDAP debug logging
    ],

    // Other settings...
];

Display Statistics

To see memory usage and execution time at the bottom of each page, enable the display_stats option:

return [
    // Other settings...

    'misc' => [
        // Other miscellaneous settings...
        'display_stats' => true,    // Display memory usage and execution time
    ],

    // Other settings...
];

By enabling these settings, you can gain more insight into the application's behavior and troubleshoot issues more effectively.
