Installing Joomla 4 and set Display Errors

Post by jumler1 » Thu Oct 24, 2024 5:12 am

I'm trying to install Joomla 4, but I can't set off Display Errors setting (look attachment joomla.jpg).

In PHP.INI is that field 'Off' (look attachment php.jpg).

How to turn off that?

but won't it will display PHP errors - not ideal..... the other related setting is "error_reporting" in php.ini should have a setting of "default" or something like that.

What server are you on - a local server (like XAMPP or WAMPServer) or your web hosting? You should be able to check on your live host, the php settings in cPanel. If this is a localhost, did you restart the web server services?

Yes, I did like that, but I want to know what is happening :)

Look at attachments, how to set up this "error_reporting"?

I'm on local server XAMPP. Yes, I restart web server services.

@jumler1, are you editing the right php.ini file, for example c:\wamp64\bin\apache\apache2.4.58.1\bin\php.ini?

Click the Wampserver icon in the System Tray, select PHP from the Wampserver menu, then select php.ini [apache module] from the PHP menu and edit that php.ini file using Notepad++ or your default text editor.

Oops, my mistake. You are using XAMPP, not Wampserver.

Check if the main Joomla folder has its own php.ini file or maybe even a file called .user.ini.

Check also the main Joomla folder if it has an .htaccess file. It may contain a statement like:

Code: Select all

php_flag display_errors On

Unfortunately, there is none of that.
