Empty exception when trying to enable development mode

Question

I use zf-development-mode to manage dev configs. When I fire php public/index.php development enable it produces the following output:

======================================================================
   The application has thrown an exception!
======================================================================


----------------------------------------------------------------------
:

======================================================================
   Previous Exception(s):

Now I’m unable to debug this. Any ideas, how I can make the exception visible on the CLI? There aren’t any problems/exceptions, when I run the ZF2 app in the browser.

Answer 1

This also happens when display_exceptions key in view_manager config section is set to false. Try editing your local config something like this:

'view_manager' => array(
    'display_exceptions' => true,
)

I had the same problem and it worked for me.
