Getting helpful error messages

[eluser]sanguina[/eluser]
Hello

I am not getting helpful error messages in CI.

For example i am getting messages like:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in C:\wamp\www\ABC\system\core\Loader.php(689) : eval()'d code on line 7

Now I have not touched the system/core areas - so there is no question of errors in core.
The error sure lies in the application area - but error messgaes seem to mean otherwise.

How do i get this to work correctly.
