If the original file path is absolute, it will be used as is.  If the 
path is relative the following rules applies:

     * 1. relative to app path in skin search paths
     * 2. relative to app path
     * 3. relative to chameleon in skin search paths
     * 4. relative to chameleon
 
You can specify the paths to the skin in the pthml file with the 
registerSkin method (e.g. $oApp->registerSkin( 'skins/sample', 
'/path/to/myskin );)

Where to find the php error log file is specified in the php.ini file.  
You should find the following lines:

; As stated above, you're strongly advised to use error logging in place of
; error displaying on production web sites.
log_errors = On
; Log errors to specified file.
;error_log = filename
