| Posted by ybjp, 09-01-2007, 03:25 PM | | I've searched the internet from top to bottom trying to fix this problem! I can't see error message on php pages!
In the php.ini file the display_errors is on. safe_mode is off. error_reporting is E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE (meaning all errors except notices, this works I've used it on other LAMP servers.)
Here are two files i've created:
http://www.ybhosting.com/test.php source code:
http://www.ybhosting.com/test2.php
The second one does not spit an error message about the character
"d". It just results in a blank page.
I am using virtual server from media-temple. I've restarted the server several times.
Please help! Thanks.

So I would worry for the opposite.
Run this test:

tail -f /var/log/httpd/error_log (if that's where your error log is)
If you are using the grid server then I'm sure they provide you with the error log file within the account center.

I tried the code stated above. With no luck.
Just now, I tried this in the terminal....
This gives me the impression that it's a problem with apache...

| Posted by ybjp, 09-01-2007, 07:53 PM | | This doesn't display php errors for some reason either. I did however set /var/log/php.log to write out the errors and that doesn't do it either UNTIL I tried it in the terminal!
Very weird stuff.

I made a big mess of things. got rid of the .htaccess php_flag that i had. that was messing everything up.
E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE only works in PHP 5.... this server is running PHP 4. This is the first time i deal with virtual hosting and plesk.
Use this instead:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
thanks everyone for all your help!

is the easy way, but you really should learn how to go through logs
as mentioned above
tail -f /var/log/httpd/error_log (if that's where your error log is)

| Posted by Digit_Canada, 02-02-2010, 10:51 PM | | I had the same problem today, with the blank page. Solved it by parsing all my modifited php using the command line php with the -l switch. It found the syntax error and solved my problem.
Hope this prevents someone else to spend half a day lookging for a syntax error.
