Check the applicable php.ini for where error messages are being sent to.
It's typical on production servers to configure PHP to only send errors
to syslog, or a file, which usually means they end up in httpd-error.log.

When developing, it's usually more convenient to have errors sent to the
browser, which is what it seems you were expecting.
