Errors do NOT display

... because displaying them on screen could make yoursite vulnerable to hackers. So instead they're trapped put in a debug file - there's info about this in this tutorial article >> https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=82

If you're site is on a LAMP account, then you'll probably find errors in the apache log file too.

Thanks! I had never heard of the error reporting in /cache/ before. That really helps.

However, since I am running all this on my laptop, it would be wonderful to see the errors on the screen. I tried following the instructions to create the following file, but still nothing on the screen.

/includes/local/configure.php

<?php
define('STRICT_ERROR_REPORTING', true);
?>

any ideas?
