Debugging mode

This user interface allows setting the debugging mode to either Production or Development, as well as configuring some particular options. To understand the specifics of these two debugging modes, please see Development Mode Error Handling and Production Mode Error Handling.

1. In the Debug mode drop-down menu select the debugging mode to use for the site. There are two modes available: Development and Production.
2. The Error reporting drop-down menu is enabled when your debug mode is the Production one. Select where to save data about errors:
   · None - information about the errors that occurred is not kept.
   · To file - all error data is saved in a log file inside the includes folder (includes/tng/logs).
   · By email - an e-mail message containing the error detail is sent. When selecting this option, the following fields are enabled.
3. In the Email log to text-box, enter the email address where the error logs will be sent.
4. In the Subject text-box enter a subject for the mail. It should be a suggestive one, to make it easier to find.
5. In the From text-box enter the source email address.
6. The three buttons on the right of the interface offer you the next functionalities:
   · Click OK when you are done configuring the dialog box.
   · Click Cancel to exit without changing the debugging mode settings.
   · The Help button takes you to this help page.

In order for the change of the debugging mode to take effect, you must upload the includes folder to the remote site.

To get a preview of how errors are handled in each of the two debugging modes, notice the next two images.
