 * I received several error messages in my debug file and wanted to know how bad
   of an error this could turn out to be:
 *     ```
       [01-May-2019 14:00:54 UTC] PHP Notice:  Undefined index: islink in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wordpress\wp-admin\includes\class-wp-filesystem-ftpsockets.php on line 504
       [01-May-2019 14:00:54 UTC] PHP Notice:  Undefined index: perms in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wordpress\wp-admin\includes\class-wp-filesystem-ftpsockets.php on line 509
       ```
   
 * My website has not crashed or anything like that. I just want to stay on top 
   of my debug and know what this error message means so when my boss asks me about
   I have a good idea of why this happened.

 * If everything’s working, it’s safe to ignore it. You should not run a production
   site with debug enabled.
 * Just for info, what versions of WP and PHP are you using?

 * The reason I run debug in production is my boss is the kinda boss that when something
   breaks he wants to know exactly what happened and at what time it happened. The
   debug is the only way I know to keep track of that. [@sterndata](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sterndata/)
   Latest Version of WordPress 5.1.1 and PHP version 7.1.25.

 * Cool beans. Thanks.
 * Does it happen if all plugins are deactivated? Have you tried that or even tried
   setting up a staging or local site to test just in case? I know it’s not always
   possible but it might be a good idea down the road too.
