PHP not displaying any errors

Question

I know this has been asked multiple times in the past but none of the solutions worked for me.

This is my PHP code:

<?php
  function
?>

This should produce an error. However, it's just returning a 500 error and not loading.

I tried less severe error producing code like this:

<?php
  $test = $example;
?>

Calling on an undefined variable produced an error on a different computer.

In my php.ini, I have display_errors = On, display_startup_errors = On, and error_reporting = E_ALL.

Edit Thanks to aspiringCodingArtisan's suggestion, I realized I was editing the wrong php.ini file. Problem solved.

Answer 1

Are you looking at the correct php.ini file? If you have something like MAMP you will find that it has multiple versions of PHP.
