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

Hi,

At a hosted site of mine, in cPanel there's a "Metrics" heading, and 
under that there's an "Errors" icon/link that leads to a page with 
"Latest web server error log messages" (this is the Apache error log) 
and "Latest suexec error log messages". Are these what you're looking 
for? There's a doc linked to from that page at 
https://docs.cpanel.net/cpanel/metrics/errors/ . Maybe this arrangement 
is different for other versions of cPanel.
