I'm aware of the ways to set up custom error pages for expected errors. However, what I'd like to do is a set up a pretty, catch-all page that viewers will see on any error. So for example instead of "Unable to connect..." or whatnot, they get "We're sorry, an error occurred...".
Is there a view that can be modified or overridden to provide this functionality?
The error views are defined in /application/views/errors/html. There is one for php errors and one for exceptions. If you don't want to edit those you can extend the CI_Exceptions class and override show_php_error or what ever else you would like. If you wanted to try that you should create a file called "MY_Exceptions.php" in the /application/core/ folder and in it put....
<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class MY_Exceptions extends CI_Exceptions {
public function show_php_error($severity, $message, $filepath, $line)
{
echo "Caught random php Error...";
}
}
