除了这里所有精彩的答案，我还想特别提一下MySQLi和PDO库。

为了……

总是看到数据库相关的错误，和 避免检查方法的返回类型以查看是否出现了错误

最好的选择是将库配置为抛出异常。

MySQLi

将此添加到脚本顶部附近

mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR | MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT);

最好放在使用新的mysqli()或mysqli_connect()之前。

PDO

在连接实例上将PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE属性设置为PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION。你可以在构造函数中这样做

$pdo = new PDO('driver:host=localhost;...', 'username', 'password', [
    PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION
]);

或者在创造之后

$pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

您可以在PHP中注册自己的错误处理程序。例如，在这些模糊的情况下，将所有错误转储到一个文件可能会对您有所帮助。注意，无论当前error_reporting设置为什么，函数都会被调用。非常基本的例子:

function dump_error_to_file($errno, $errstr) {
    file_put_contents('/tmp/php-errors', date('Y-m-d H:i:s - ') . $errstr, FILE_APPEND);
}
set_error_handler('dump_error_to_file');

一些应用程序确实自己处理这些指令，通过调用这样的命令:

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED); or error_reporting(0);

从而覆盖你的。htaccess设置。

除了error_reporting和display_errors ini设置外，您还可以从web服务器的日志文件中获得语法错误。当我在开发PHP时，我将我的开发系统的web服务器日志加载到我的编辑器中。每当我测试一个页面并得到一个空白屏幕时，日志文件就会失效，我的编辑器会询问我是否要重新加载它。当我这样做时，我跳到底部，那里有语法错误。例如:

[Sun Apr 19 19:09:11 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in D:\\webroot\\test\\test.php on line 9

除了上面的许多很好的答案，你还可以在你的项目中实现以下两个功能。它们将在应用程序/脚本退出之前捕捉每个非语法错误。 在函数内部，您可以进行回溯和日志，或向公众呈现令人愉快的“网站正在维护”消息。

致命错误:

register_shutdown_function

http://php.net/manual/en/function.register-shutdown-function.php

错误:

set_error_handler

http://php.net/manual/en/function.set-error-handler.php

回溯:

debug_backtrace

http://php.net/manual/en/function.debug-backtrace.php

这个答案是由冗余部门为您带来的。

ini_set() / php.ini / .htaccess / .user.ini The settings display_errors and error_reporting have been covered sufficiently now. But just to recap when to use which option: ini_set() and error_reporting() apply for runtime errors only. php.ini should primarily be edited for development setups. (Webserver and CLI version often have different php.ini's) .htaccess flags only work for dated setups (Find a new hoster! Well managed servers are cheaper.) .user.ini are partial php.ini's for modern setups (FCGI/FPM) And as crude alternative for runtime errors you can often use: set_error_handler("var_dump"); // ignores error_reporting and `@` suppression error_get_last() Can be used to retrieve the last runtime notice/warning/error, when error_display is disabled. $php_errormsg Is a superlocal variable, which also contains the last PHP runtime message. isset() begone! I know this will displease a lot of folks, but isset and empty should not be used by newcomers. You can add the notice suppression after you verified your code is working. But never before. A lot of the "something doesn't work" questions we get lately are the result of typos like: if(isset($_POST['sumbit'])) # ↑↑ You won't get any useful notices if your code is littered with isset/empty/array_keys_exists. It's sometimes more sensible to use @, so notices and warnings go to the logs at least. assert_options(ASSERT_ACTIVE|ASSERT_WARNING); To get warnings for assert() sections. (Pretty uncommon, but more proficient code might contain some.) PHP7 requires zend.assertions=1 in the php.ini as well. declare(strict_types=1); Bending PHP into a strictly typed language is not going to fix a whole lot of logic errors, but it's definitely an option for debugging purposes. PDO / MySQLi And @Phil already mentioned PDO/MySQLi error reporting options. Similar options exist for other database APIs of course. json_last_error() + json_last_error_msg For JSON parsing. preg_last_error() For regexen. CURLOPT_VERBOSE To debug curl requests, you need CURLOPT_VERBOSE at the very least. shell/exec() Likewise will shell command execution not yield errors on its own. You always need 2>&1 and peek at the $errno.
