Bug in yii2-debug or.. more likely I misconfigured something

Yii 2.0 General Discussions

I am using yii2-debug. I am getting this error:

Unable to send log via yii\debug\LogTarget: Exception 'yii\base\UnknownMethodException' with message 'Calling unknown method: yii\console\Request::getAbsoluteUrl()'

I tracked this down to: /yiisoft/yii2-debug/src/LogTarget.php

For now, I’ve updated the $summary code so the error will stop (see my diff at the end), but I’m not clear what is really causing the error?

I configure LogTarget in both common/config/main.php and console/config/main.php

common/config/main.php:

$config['components']['log']['targets'][] = [
    'class' => 'yii\log\FileTarget',
    'enabled' => true,
    //'categories' => [ 'application' ],
    'levels' => [ 'error', 'warning' ],
    'enableRotation' => true,
    'logFile' => '@runtime/logs/errors.log',
    'logVars' => [],
];

$config['components']['log']['targets'][] = [
    'class' => 'yii\log\FileTarget',
    'enabled' => true,
    //'categories' => [ 'application' ],
    'levels' => [ 'error' ],
    'enableRotation' => true,
    'logFile' => '@runtime/logs/fatal.log',
    'logVars' => [],
];

$config['components']['log']['targets'][] = [
    'class' => 'yii\log\EmailTarget',
    'mailer' => 'mailer',
    'levels' => ['error', 'warning'],
    'message' => [
        'from' => ['xxx@mydomain'],
        'to' => ['yyyy@mydomain'],
        'subject' => sprintf("%s - %s", gethostname(), "ERROR"),
    ],
];

$config['components']['log']['targets'][] = [
    'class' => 'yii\log\FileTarget',
    'enabled' => true,
    'levels' => [ 'error', 'warning', 'trace' ],
    'enableRotation' => true,
    'logFile' => '@runtime/logs/debug.log',
    'logVars' => [],
];

console/config/main.php

$config['components']['log']['targets'][] = [
    // https://github.com/pahanini/yii2-consolelog
    'class' => 'pahanini\log\ConsoleTarget',
    'enabled' => true,
    'levels' => ['error', 'warning', 'trace'],
    'exportInterval' => 1,
    'logVars' => [],
];
