error_reporting(E_ALL) fails to show anything - help!!

[comp.lang.php]

I am having problems tracing errors in my code using PHP 4.3.9 on Linux
RHEL 4 with Apache 2.0.54

On occasions I see no errors, no parse, no fatal, no warnings, no
notices.. and no code either! No HTML, nothing! I get a completely
blank page with no content whatsoever.

I have at the very top of my page
[PHP]
error_reporting (E_ALL);
[/PHP]

As a test to see if even notices would pop up, but nothing.

What could cause this to happen?

Thanx
Phil

My bet is that you have at least:
[PHP]
<?php
error_reporting (E_ALL);
?>
[/PHP]

rather than what you indicated above.

That sounds redundant to me, unclear as to how this will shed light on
my problem.

check to see what the log_errors value is set to in php.ini... if it is
1, then you have to check your error.log file rather than the browser.

Can you run PHP on a CLI in that machine? That would clear things up.

Try:

echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?> " | /usr/bin/php

If error_reporting is set to 0 in php.ini, you won't see any E_PARSE
error message even if you do an error_reporting (E_ALL), as the error
would occur prior to the line being executed.

The CLI and the Apache module may have different configurations.

In my setup, they do

The Apache module
~$ wget http://localhost/info.php -O- 2> /dev/null | grep error_log
<tr><td class="e">error _log</td><td
class="v">/var/www/log/phperrors.log</td><td
class="v">/var/www/log/phperrors.log</td></tr>

This last line, reformatted, becomes
error_log => /var/www/log/phperrors.log => /var/www/log/phperrors.log

The CLI
~$ php /var/www/normal/info.php | grep error_log
error_log => no value => no value

If you want to override the log_errors directive in php.ini, you can do
that with

ini_set('displa y_errors', 1);
<http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.errorfunc.p hp#ini.display-errors>

or, maybe with (I never tested it)

ini_set('error_ log', NULL);
<http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.errorfunc.p hp#ini.error-log>

error_reporting is set to '1', this according to php.ini

1 is E_ERROR, so you won't not be getting any E_PARSE message.
