How do I get PHP Errors to display?

I have checked my PHP ini file and display errors is set and also error reporting is E_ALL. I have restarted my apache web server. I have even put these lines at the top of my script and it doesn't even catch simple parse errors. For example, I declare variables with a "$" and I don't close statements";". But all my scripts show a blank page on these errors, but i want to actually see the errors in my browser output.

error_reporting(E_ALL);  ini_set('display_errors', 1);  

What is left to do?

Answer by Michael Madsen for How do I get PHP Errors to display?

You can't catch parse errors when enabling error output at runtime, because it parses the file before actually executing anything (and since it encounters an error during this, it won't execute anything). You'll need to change the actual server configuration so that display_errors is on and the approriate error_reporting level is used. If you don't have access to php.ini, you may be able to use .htaccess or similar, depending on the server.

Inside your php.ini:

display_errors = on  

Then restart your web server.

Some web hosting providers allow you to change PHP params in the .htaccess file.

You can add the following line:

php_value display_errors 1  

I had the same issue as yours and this solution fixed it.

When using PHP as an Apache module, we can a change the configuration settings using directives in Apache configuration files (e.g. httpd.conf) and .htaccess files. You will need ?AllowOverride Options? or ?AllowOverride All? privileges to do so.

Answer by andre for How do I get PHP Errors to display?

To display all errors you need to:

1. Have these lines in the PHP script you're calling from the browser (typically index.php):

error_reporting(E_ALL);  ini_set('display_errors', 1);  

2.(a) Make sure that this script has no syntax errors

?or?

2.(b) Set display_errors = On in your php.ini

Otherwise, it can't even run those 2 lines!

You can check for syntax errors in your script by running (at the command line):

php -l index.php  

If you include the script from another PHP script then it will display syntax errors in the included script. For example:

index.php

error_reporting(E_ALL);  ini_set('display_errors', 1);    // Any syntax errors here will result in a blank screen in the browser    include 'my_script.php';  

my_script.php

adjfkj // This syntax error will be displayed in the browser

This always works for me:

ini_set('display_errors', 1);  ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);  error_reporting(E_ALL);  

However, this doesn't make PHP to show parse errors - the only way to show those errors is to modify your php.ini with this line:

display_errors = on

display_errors = on      display_startup_errors = on  

Answer by jxmallett for How do I get PHP Errors to display?

If, despite following all of the above answers (or you can't edit your php.ini file), you still can't get an error message, try making a new PHP file that enables error reporting and then include the problem file. eg:

error_reporting(9999999);  ini_set('display_errors', 1);  require_once('problem_file.php');  

Despite having everything set properly in my php.ini file, this was the only way I could catch a namespace error. My exact scenario was:

//file1.php  namespace a\b;  class x {      ...  }    //file2.php  namespace c\d;  use c\d\x; //Dies because it's not sure which 'x' class to use  class x {      ...  }  

Answer by chiborg for How do I get PHP Errors to display?

If you somehow find yourself in a situation where you can't modifiy the setting via php.ini or .htaccess you're out of luck for displaying errors when your PHP scripts contain parse errors. You'd then have to resolve to linting the files on the command line like this:

find . -name '*.php' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -n1 -P8 php -l | grep -v "No syntax errors"  

If your host is so locked down that it does not allow changing the value via php.ini or .htaccess, it may also disallow changing the value via ini_set. You can check that with the following PHP script:
