Rather pointless error message - primadonna - 04-03-2019
I'm trying out CI4 beta 1.
The demo page works, but when I try to retrieve stuff from the database it crashes with this message:
Quote:Whoops!
We seem to have hit a snag. Please try again later...
How to turn this off so that I can see actual error messages?
Setting
Code:
SetEnv CI_ENVIRONMENT developmenthas no effect.

What you did used to work. I now rename env to .env and set the value there.
CI_ENVIRONMENT = development

That's the production generic error message (usually a 500), so definitely need to get you into development mode. If what you tried didn't work check out @donpwinston's example. You could also set your log level in app/Config/Logger.php (e.g. `public $threshold = 5;`) and then check the error message in your logs.

Could you elaborate? Where is env?

It's a file at the top level of the CI installation, alongside app, system, license.txt, ...etc

That works, thanks.
