 * Hi,
 * I have moved a website to a different folder on my server, but ELM doesn’t believe
   me:
 * `The log file /home/nettsite/domains/blinds/public_html/wp-content/elm-error-
   logs/php-errors.log does not exist or is inaccessible.`
 * My wp-config.php:
 *     ```
       //Enable error logging.
       @ini_set('log_errors', 'On');
       @ini_set('error_log', '/home/blindsonthenet/elm-error-logs/php-errors.log');
       ```
   
 * I have deactivated and reactivated, deleted and reinstalled, all to no avail.

 * The plugin just takes the log file name from the active PHP configuration. Chances
   are, there’s still some .php file that has the wrong file name.
 * Is there still a copy of the old `wp-config.php` somewhere on the server? If 
   so, could you try removing or renaming that as a test?

 * Hi Janis,
 * Thank you, it was me being dumb – I didn’t change the path in NetBeans, so when
   I saved changes to wp-config.php NetBeans silently recreated the old path structure,
   and saved the file there.
 * So, I was editing one file, and using another.
