: My php.ini configuration is being ignored - how can I override the error reporting level in my PHP scripts? Just migrated to a new server, and its error reporting level for PHP is higher than

@Kevin317

Yet another alternative:

If you have a master config file you can place the error reporting function in that file. It obviously then will affect the entire website.

Yet another alternative:

Place this in an htaccess file in the root directory of the site. Should affect every domain:

php_flag display_errors off (or whatever you want it to be)

The easiest thing is to open a ticket on your new webhoster and and ask him how you could set up php.ini directives per your account.

Given the code you showed it seems you were on a server with LiteSpeed where you can use php_flag in .htaccess file.

Maybe the new server where you moved is using Apache + suPHP (and NOT LiteSpeed) in such case you would need to activates suPHP by addding this line in your .htaccess file
#Activates php.ini config located in main folder to work also recursively for all subfolders
suPHP_ConfigPath /home/your_cpanel_user_name/public_html


and then in the same folder you can add a simple php.ini file where you write inside the directives you want to override in the following format

; Overriding server's php.ini directives
error_reporting = E_ALL|E_NOTICE|E_STRICT
display_errors = Off
log_errors = On

You can use the error_reporting function at the top of each file to get round the fact that your server doesn't seem to be obeying what you've configured.
