  <p>I cannot not enable the display_errors setting in php no matter what i do!!!</p>
  
  <p>Im using virtual box with php 5.3 installed with apache2 running.  i have tried everything i can think of to get display errors working but nothing seems to work. </p>
  
  <p>I have set php_flag display_errors on in my .htaccess file i have even enabled it directly in the php.ini file</p>
  
  <pre><code>display_errors = 1
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and also tried</p>
  
  <pre><code>display_errors = On
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am using the defaults for apache sites-enabled is there something i need to do here to get this to work?? i have never had this problem running php on my mac using mamp.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated this is driving me nuts!</p>
