How to turn on PHP error reporting

Hello,

I am trying to install script on my new webhost, everything seems to be ok, but when i go to the step with testDB connections i get blank page, from support team told me to activate PHP error reporting -
error_reporting(E_ALL)

but i don't have enough knowledge about .htaccess file.

From web host told me by adding the appropriate php_flag or
php_value directive to an .htaccess file in your /httpdocs directory.

Can anybody write an example for me please, i will be really thankful to you!

Kind regards,
Kal

 

Put that after the <?php/<? tag in the php tag.

 

also something to look for when you get the 'blank page' on running php stuff

look in your directory of the script you may see a file called 'error.txt' in there.
open that file and it will show you a hint of what is going on.

hope this helps
