PHP, EA4 and mod_cgid logging?

RWH Tech
I think I've worked myself retarded during a server move, so I figured I'd ask around here. For S&Gs I installed a Softaculous app called SEO something, but when I hit the app's directory the server gives me a 500. Thing is, there's no error logged in error_log. I googled and found the ScriptLog directive for mod_cgid, so I turn it on, give o+w to the /var/log file and get nothing. mod_cgid instructions say "must be writable to the user", so world-writable should be OK, IMO. I even 777'd the thing and nothing. SO, who all is running WHM 58, EA4, mod_cgid. and logging PHP errors?

    Have you seen these docs? Apache Module: FCGId - EasyApache - cPanel Documentation

    That only applies to EA3. EA4 doesn't currently support mod_fcgid

    Well, I just got something to log in that file, by a different application (hubzilla), but the seo app 500's with no log entries. Odd.

    Hello, Could you verify the specific log file you are checking? Thank you.

    I'm logging to /var/log/cgi_log Other applications, like wordpress, log their errors, but this one does not. It's an install of "SEO Panel" I installed to check out and it does not like PHP7. Not really important, though I'm curious as to why nothing is logged by it.

    Were you able to confirm it's a PHP error and not an Apache error? For instance, is anything logged to /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log when this happens? Thank you.

    I'll just write it off to "something weird and I don't care", since it's not a customer's app that's acting up, but just something I was playing around with. It runs fine in PHP56, but 500's in PHP7.

    Feel free to open a support ticket with us in the future if it's something you want us to take a closer look at. Thank you.

    If a similar issue crops up with a client application, I'll open up a ticket for further investigation. Thanks!
