I want a linebreak whenever a new error is send to the log.

but the log outputs:

2013-08-17 13:10:34, asdf, Logingegevens onjuist! /r/n2013-08-17 13:10:41, fffffff, Logingegevens onjuist!

From the answer here:

...you should be able to change the error_log directive in your php.ini on Debian to point to a file. If this is undefined, it will go through syslog which doesn't support multiple lines.

This may happen if:

  • Apache can't write to into your error_log file
  • The error_log directive is empty

If it's the former, then you should be able to fix this by defining a file using the error_log directive in php.ini.

If it's the latter, then you can change the CHMOD permissions for that file and give Apache write access.

Documentation: error_log()

If you're not using file logging then this won't work.

Otherwise, it's \r\n, not /r/n.

I don't script in php for long.. so first thanks for the replies.

The code I used now was:

$log_data = "$date, $ip, $username, $error \r\n";
$log = file_put_contents("logs/login.log", $log_data, FILE_APPEND | LOCK_EX);

with these variables:

$date = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");
$ip = GetHostByName("REMOTE_ADDR");

wich outputs: (ip blurred)
