No errors?

Hello DevShed. I had a quick question that google doesn't seem to answer for me. I am trying to run this script:

Code:

<?php
require("noFileExistsHere.php");
echo "Hi Earth :)";
?>

In order to produce an error. However, instead I get no error whatsoever. No output of any kind in fact. I have definitely made sure to enable error reporting in /etc/php/php.ini..

Code:

 display_errors
   Default Value: On
   Development Value: On
   Production Value: On

 display_startup_errors
   Default Value: On
   Development Value: On
   Production Value: On

 error_reporting
   error_reporting E_ERROR  E_WARNING  E_PARSE
   Default Value: E_ALL E_NOTICE E_STRICT E_DEPRECATED
   Development Value: E_ALL
   Production Value: E_ALL E_DEPRECATED E_STRICT

 html_errors
   Default Value: On
   Development Value: On
   Production value: On

 log_errors
   Default Value: On
   Development Value: On
   Production Value: On

To no avail. Any ideas?

Try enabling error reporting on top of the script:

PHP Code:


		
			
 ini_set ('display_errors', true);

error_reporting (E_ALL);

The lines you posted from your /etc/php/php.ini are supposed to be comments. Is that literally what you have in there? (If so, PHP will fail to parse it correctly)

On a development machine that section should look like this:

Code:

; display_errors
;   Default Value: On
;   Development Value: On
;   Production Value: Off
display_errors = On

; display_startup_errors
;   Default Value: Off
;   Development Value: On
;   Production Value: Off
display_startup_errors = On

; error_reporting
;   Default Value: E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
;   Development Value: E_ALL | E_STRICT
;   Production Value: E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED
error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT

; html_errors
;   Default Value: On
;   Development Value: On
;   Production value: Off
html_errors = On

; log_errors
;   Default Value: Off
;   Development Value: On
;   Production Value: On
log_errors = On

That worked. However, now it causes an error for this script:

Code:

<?php
mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "mypass") or die(mysql_error());
echo "Connected to MySQL!!!<br />";
mysql_select_db("data") or die(mysql_error());
echo "Connected to Database!!";
?>

When this script previously produced the proper output. When I view this page without errors enabled it shows me the proper output, but when I enable errors it makes it so that instead of showing: "Connected to Database!!" it shows me this:

Code:

 Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in /home/user/code/php/connect.php on line 2

Is there some other configuration that I have messed up somewhere? Oh, and yes I have restarted the http daemon.
