hi, I omitted a semicolon ; at the end of a php statement on purpose to see
what the error looks like. I ran the script and a blank page jus came
out.Noerror message. I then edited
php.ini and set Display_errors =3D On and errror_reporting =3D E_ALL then
restarted httpd. Ran the script again and the same thing happens. My
question is:- how do I make php to show me a simple error like omitting a
semicolon

Check the apache error log.

That should do it. Maybe php didn't like the uppercase 'D' or the
misspelling of 'errror_reporting'(although I assume that's just a typo
in the email and not your config)? Try setting 'display_errors = On;'
instead of 'Display_errors' and see if that works for you. Jason's
suggestion to look at the apache logs should work as well.

Cheers,

Chris

i use apache and php as cgi on winxp. i've never been
able to get the errors to print to the screen.

however, i still get to see my errors by using an ide.
eclips with the php plugin will display errors when
configured correctly.

i use php designer 2005 (2006 beta is available) and
the ide will display my errors when i run the script
from within the ide.

good luck.

I checked the apache error log and the error is written there just as I
expected like below.

[client 127.0.0.1] PHP Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING,
expecting ',' or ';' on line 90, referer: http://localhost/form.html

The problem is I know what the error is. What I want is for the error to be
shown when I run the script not to be just written to the error log. I trie=
d
changing display_errors =3D On and error_reporting =3D On in php.ini , rest=
arted
httpd but when I check with phpinfo() I still see display_errors set to Off
and error_reporting set to 2047. My php script still does not show any
errors. Why are my changes to php.ini not refrlected when I run phpinfo() ?
Where am I getting it all wrong?

Display_error and errror_reporting were a typo. I wrote these correctly
while editing php.ini. I mean I wrote display_errors and error_reporting.

Thanks in advance

Here are the things I would try (I'm assuming Linux/Apache setup):

1) verify that there aren't any typo's that are causing fatal problems
in your php.ini

2) look at the output of phpinfo() and verify the location of the
php.ini script. Default locations on *nix systems can
be /usr/local/lib/php.ini or /etc/php.ini depending on how PHP was
built. You might be modifying the wrong file (I've done that more than
once).

3) check your apache config, see if there's anything that might be
overriding your setup.

4) check your script for any ini_set() function calls that might be
changing display_errors.

Cheers,

Chris

Thanks Christopher for your help. I followed you numbered advicestep by
step.
1) I verified that there weren't any typo's that were causing fatal problem=
s
in my php.ini

2) looked at the output of phpinfo() and verified the location of the
php.ini script. /etc/php.ini .This is the file I am modifying

3) checked my apache config, could not see anything that might be
overriding my setup.

4) checked my script for any ini_set() function calls that might be
changing display_errors. I did not use any ini_set() functions

But still the problem is not solved. Just to recap on the problem: I just
want the deliberate php errors Imake to shown as errors on the php page whe=
n
the script runs.

Thanks in advance

Yes, that should be the normal behaviour. Check your error_reporting
setting. It should be one of the following (see below).

The most common would be:

error_reporting = E_ALL

If this still doesn't work, try the default php.ini.dist and copy it
over your php.ini.

Cheers,

Chris
