stderr.log empty - no php errors

[MPI]

Cannot get any PHP errors/notices to get logged anywhere on the server. I've even turned on all debugging options to HIGH through the gui...

File name = $SERVER_ROOT/logs/error.log (works but only no php logs)
Log Level = DEBUG
Enable stderr Log = Yes

/usr/local/lsws/lsphp5/etc/php.ini
display_errors = On
display_startup_errors = On
log_errors = On

even tried
error_log = syslog
&
error_log = /usr/local/lsws/logs/php_errors.log (chowned nobody & chmod 777)

$SERVER_ROOT/logs/stdee.log is empty (chowned nobody & chmod 777)

centos 6.0 - php is compiled 5.3.8 - /usr/local/lsws/fcgi-bin/lsphp5

Please advise.

...anyone?

I've rebuild litespeed and php with different options...nothing, no log nada.

i was able to use to the following through .htaccess

php_flag display_startup_errors on
php_flag display_errors on
php_flag error_reporting E_ALL
php_flag log_errors on
php_value error_log /error_log.txt

the display_errors works...but still...NO logging. file emails blank..i've tried changing paths, permissions and ownership.

I'm stuck, please help.
