Displaying PHP Errors - Blank Screen

Also realise this is an old thread but this would have saved me a lot of time if I found it earlier.

moopa explains the answer.
My way to implement this was to go to the index.php which is a sibling to the 'application' folder.

At the top of the file, I have set the instance to development:

Code:

define('ENVIRONMENT', 'development');

Then lower in the same file, use

Code:

ini_set("display_errors", 1);

to set error messages on:

Code:

case 'development': {
   error_reporting(E_ALL);
   ini_set("display_errors", 1);
   break;
  }
