I think the title is self-explanatory, and my Google-fu isn't bringing up anything useful.

I'm working on a new host, and my php error log only displays the error itself, not which script is the offender, nor which line number the error is occurring on.

Makes it a tad difficult to debug, especially since there's only 1 error in the script.

More info: I'm not using a custom error handler that I'm aware of. This is a standard Wordpress install.

The error was

[27-Aug-2012 19:22:36 UTC] PHP NOTICE: Trying to get property of non-object. Just no script name or line number in the error

I found that Wordpress' error logging contained the information to debug the problem, but that doesn't explain why the log didn't contain line number or script.
