To log validation exceptions in Laravel, you can use the Log facade to write a message to the log file whenever a validation exception occurs. Here is an example of how you can do this:

1
2
3
4
5
6
try {
    // Perform validation logic here
} catch (ValidationException $e) {
    Log::error('Validation Exception: ' . $e->getMessage());
    // Handle the exception as needed
}


In this code snippet, we are catching a ValidationException and logging the error message using the Log facade. You can customize the log message by including additional information and formatting as needed.


Make sure that you have configured your Laravel application to use a logging driver such as 'single', 'daily', 'syslog', 'errorlog', 'custom', or 'stack' in the config/logging.php configuration file. This will determine where the log messages are stored and how they are formatted.
