log php errors on console using log4php but it display on browser as well

Question

i am using log4php library log errors only to console (stdout). But when I run my code on browser, it outputs on the browser, which I don't want to happen.

I already referred and tried logs php error but not display it in browser, but none of those answers worked out for me my code is simple.

<?php
error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_PARSE);
error_reporting(0);ini_set('display_errors', 'Off');
require_once("log4php/Logger.php");
$logger = Logger::getLogger("main");
$logger->info("This is an informational message.");
$logger->warn("I'm not feeling so good...");

Configuration file:

<configuration xmlns="http://logging.apache.org/log4php/">
<appender name="default" class="LoggerAppenderConsole">
    <layout class="LoggerLayoutSimple" />
</appender>
<root>
    <appender_ref ref="default" />
</root>

This outputs on the browser,

INFO - This is an informational message. WARN - I'm not feeling so good...

I want it to be only on stdout. Please let me know if my understanding is wrong about stodut in this case

EDIT MY WORKING CODE AFTER THE ANSWER:

<?php
require_once("log4php/Logger.php");
Logger::configure("log4php/config.xml");
$logger = Logger::getLogger("default");
$logger->info("This is an informational message.");
$logger->warn("I'm not feeling so good...");

You might need to check to see if the script is being run via browser or console and only run the logger if it's cli. If the script is being run via browser, stdout is the browser, not the system. — aynber

I think you are not calling file proper way ! or missing xml file

require_once('/path/to/log4php.xml');

So it should be something like this

error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE);
error_reporting(0);
ini_set('display_errors', 'Off');
require_once('/path/to/log4php/Logger.php');
//xml file here
$logger = Logger::getLogger(basename(__FILE__));
$logger->info('This is an informational message');
$logger->warn("I'm not feeling so good...");

See this question is well : log4php : Cannot create log file

One small doubt, To verify whether it is running in console. I tried "php filename.php" it displays the warning message. While "curl url_path_to_file" Is not showing any. Am I verifying it right

try

ini_set('display_errors',0);

or set that directive in the php.ini file

see https://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.display-errors

in the documentation it says Although display_errors may be set at runtime (with ini_set()), it won't have any effect if the script has fatal errors. This is because the desired runtime action does not get executed.
