Server got upgraded from PHP 5.2 to 5.3 and now I am no longer getting syntax errors, just a blank white page. I know this is a common question, and I normally know what needs to be done, I’ve just never had this situation before.
php.ini has display_errors on and error_reporting is set to E_ALL & E_NOTICE. Are there any other directives that could be affecting it? I used to get syntax error messages ("Unexpected ; in file on line...").
Am I being really stupid here?
I had the directive slightly wrong. The correct value in php.ini needs to be:
E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
