What should be on monitor if display_errors is set to off? Is it set to off ?

[floridaflatlander]

My provider says that my display_errors is set to off ( in an email, also I have a new provider and I can't see how to get to php.ini yet)

 

I always thought that if display_errors is set to off that when a php error would occur that the screen would go blank from that spot and beyound.

 

However when I put in the wrong connect info by mistake I got

 

Warning: require( PATH TO connect.php (I changed this)) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /this directory (I changed this) on line 10

 

Should this stuff be showing with display_errors set to off ?

No.

To remove all doubt as to what the settings are, run a phpinfo() script.

Thanks

 

that does remove all doubt, display_errors is on

You can control it on a per-script basis if needed by adding this to top of the script, but it sure would be easier to figure out how to access your local php.ini. Then you could set up error logging as well.

ini_set('display_errors', 0);
