Handling 'Error in exception handler' error in Laravel

Question

I get the "Error in exception handler" error very often, mainly because of file permission issue, and sometimes because of error in code.

I want to redirect user to a custom error page every time the system encounters the 'error in exception handler' error.

How do I handle this error?

It's because Laravel can't write to the logfile. If you don't want logs, you can disable it in app/start/global.php around line 55:

App::error(function(Exception $exception, $code)
{
    Log::error(...); //comment out this line.
});

But honestly, that would be a symptom-treatment instead of a problem-treatment. You should chown the app/storage recursively to the user running the server. Fastest way:

In public/index.php, at the very top, temporarily put in die(`whoami`) just after the opening <?php-tag.
Load any page and copy whatever it prints on the site. Let's say it's www-data.
Fire up a terminal/console, go to your project root and run chown www-data -R app/storage, swapping www-data with whatever you found in step two.
