You are probably better off asking this in an Ubuntu forum. However, in general, PHP on Linux systems will put errors in the HTTPD logs (/var/logs/httpd).

thanks a lot for your reply sir..

but i also want to php to show the error on browser window..

because it's very time consuming to check that folder every time.. to find out the error..

hope i clear..

and yes i have asked this question on Ubuntu forums too, but i thought there forum is only about for Ubuntu relates question and as it goes for php issue, that's why i asked here..

thanks again for your reply
best regards

Not all errors can be shown on the browser window. Fatal errors (such as compiler errors) obviously cannot because PHP ends immediately.

Hi,

what exactly in your php.ini have you changed? Please post the exact values. And post the script you use for testing the error messages.

thanks for your reply sir:

here is the php code for testing:

Code:

<?php
	
	phpinfo()
	echo "error!'

?>

my WAMP server return this error:

Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'echo' (T_ECHO) in G:\My Documents\Incomedia\WebSite X5 v9 - Evolution\Siam Computer\Preview\dont\t1.php on line 4

but my LAMP (ubuntu) does not shows any error

however i am editing this ini file ? hope this is the write one?

Code:

sudo gedit /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

and i have changed following values:

Code:

display_errors = On

error_reporting = E_ALL

display_startup_errors = On

log_errors = On

i hope i have provided you with enough information..

best regards

That is a compiler error. You're using mixed quotes and missing the ;.

PHP Code:


		
			
 phpinfo();

echo "error!";

Note the use of [ PHP ] tags. See the sticky at the top of this forum.

The configuration values look good. However, make sure they're actually used, that is, they're neither commented out nor overwritten later. Also make sure this is the right php.ini (the phpinfo() page tells you the configuration file that's used by PHP).

And don't forget to restart your Apache.

Just to make sure: Your PHP does work, right? It does display a "Hello world"?
