Yii displays standard error even in debug mode

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

I have a bug in my CGridView. One of the columns tries to read a property from non object. Just before line, that renders this grid view (i.e. just above <?php $this->widget(‘GridView’, array () I placed following code:


<?php

	echo 'YII_DEBUG = '.print_r(YII_DEBUG, TRUE);

	var_dump(YII_DEBUG);

	echo 'YII_TRACE_LEVEL = '.print_r(YII_TRACE_LEVEL, TRUE);

	var_dump(YII_TRACE_LEVEL);

	die();

?>

And it gives me following results:


YII_DEBUG = 1

bool(true)

YII_TRACE_LEVEL = 3

int(3)

However, when I remove or comment-out this code, the very next line (where error occurs) does not causes Yii to render typical, full-stack debug information (including file, line and stack trace) about error. Instead, I see a one-line error message, rendered with site/error view, just as I should see it, when debug would actually be turned off (but, it isn’t):

I’ve been struggling with this for months, but I have no cluse, what can cause Yii to ignore debug settings and display errors without debug stack trace even, when debug mode is enabled.

Can anyone help here, by at least giving some tip, where should I start to look for?

The question is - do other errors throw exception with the same configuration?

There was a change regarding this… check this github issue if it helps you - https://github.com/yiisoft/yii/issues/3760

You’re right… as always. I have no idea about this change.
