If you are on a SharedHosting plan (like on hostgator)… simply adding

php_flag display_errors 1

into a .htaccess file and uploading it to the remote folder may not yield the actual warnings/errors that were generated on the server.

What you will also need to do is edit the php.ini

This is how you do it via cPanel (tested on hostgator shared hosting
plan)

After logging into your cPanel, search for MultiPHP INI Editor.
It is usually found under the SOFTWARE section in your cPanel list of items.

On the MultiPHP INI Editor page …you can stay on the basic mode tab and just check the button on the line that says display_errors.
Then click the Apply button to save.

IMPORTANT: Just remember to turn it back off when you are done debugging; because this is not recommended for public servers.
