After clearing error log, if the errors doens't appear again, does it mean that errors are gone away? 

 

in other words, clearing the error log, doesn't show the errors if they still exist? or even after clearing the error log the opencart does show the errors if they still exisit?

Hello Rohith,

If you clear the log and no new errors appear, then they have been corrected. However, if you clear it and new errors appear, then they still exist and will need to be looked into.

Kindest Regards,
Scott M
