Let Php Show All Errors

03.20.2006

| 507117 views |

        I have wondered why my php script doesn't show
errors like it did before. It seems my server admin
has default config set not to show the errors.

Here's how to override it.

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


BTW, it's really a pain to code in a language that
demand a ';' after every line.

There is a great guide to implementing this plus how to make the system log the errors instead of displaying them and code specific for drupal, wordpress and other cms systems

Coming from the C and Perl side I don't mind the trailing semicolon. Although I like Ruby very much these day. ;)

korakot is primarily a Python coder, not ASP ;-) That said, Ruby is similar.

If you don't like the ; maybe you'd be happier back in ASP, where you have no idea when a line's ending... Unfortunately, then you'd have to deal with the other million ASP suckage points.
