Hi Eric!

If this is syntax error if you have php locally you may  check file for 
syntax errors with the following command:
php -l my-php-file.php
If it is runtime error you may include at the beginning of php script 
command to turn on error reporting and display errors like this:
ini_set("display_errors", 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
Another combined scenario if you don't have php locally is to create new 
sample test script which turn on error reporting and include sript with 
problem.
Something like this. Create new php file my-test.php with the following 
content:
<?php
ini_set("display_errors", 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
include("my-php-file.php");
?>
