Have you ever worked on your local environment – looks fine, and then your live server produces the following error?
Warning Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by…
This usually happens because output buffering is often enabled in the local environment, while most servers disable output buffering.
You should disable output buffering by going to php.ini file and comment the line that reads something like this:
; output_buffering = 4096
After making this change, reload your local environment.
That’s all. The error now will appear on your localhost as well. Fix the error now and deploy. Happy developing! 🙂
