Re: [Tiki-devel] Packages and Fitness Check not working

Hi Jonny,

I found some documentation about cPanel and getting the apache error log
here
https://docs.cpanel.net/knowledge-base/cpanel-product/the-cpanel-log-files/
so I tried this in the command line:

var/log/apache2/error_log

unfortunately, it says 'no such file or directory.'  I believe I entered
the correct path, but maybe not.  Maybe a different command like is better?

I also checked a feature called 'Errors' (in cPanel under 'Metrics') but
there was just two error messages from last October, and these 'Packages'
errors are more recent

Did the screenshots of the command line errors when trying to install
Composer provide any clues?  it lists many errors there.

One message that I thought odd, was listed directly in the Packages GUI
(Control Panel), 'a.Farkas/html5shiv is invalid, it should not contain
upper case characters' (and highlighted in red on the command line
screenshots I attached above)

Thanks,
Mike
