How to Enable debug for check issues on my community?

[Marco Junior]

Hello everyone,

I need active DEBUG on my community for check possible issue with my PHP.

But I didn't find anything related to this in the community could someone explain it to me?

Because I know that an error is happening, but I want to know how to solve it by checking the platform debugs.
because the only message the system shows me is error 500

Your hosting provider should be able to show you where 500 errors are logged.  

PHP by default disables showing errors (thus a blank white screen).  You can tell it to just show errors to the screen by adding something like the following to your .htaccess as well:

php_flag display_startup_errors on
php_flag display_errors on

Please note...  these are server level items, not software level things.  As a result, the support team cannot officially help you with this.  If you have problems, you should contact your hosting provider about how they handle access to error logs and displaying errors.

I need only check this issue, but for check this I need active debug by the community

php display errors does not help me with this.

Apparently your host does not allow you to override showing PHP errors.  You need to ask your host where your 500 error log is stored.  🙂 That's a sever level setting.

I m my server owner.
You still don't understand my question, the basic question is where and how is the IPS platform's development or DEBUG mode enabled?
I need to check the error through debug as the error is related to the init.php file after community update to beta version.

Forget your assumptions about the provider or display errors or PHP.
If you know how to enable developer/debug mode just answer me this.

You don't enable debug logging, etc.  Any logs captured by IPB would be in your ACP within the Support section.  

If it's not something there, you as a server admin need to get it from your Apache or PHP logs (outside of the support that can be provided here).

I have to admit, I would have also made the assumption this is probably not what you need here. However, what you have asked for is here
