(Its name is a bit misleading. It was originally designed to display extensive traceback information in HTML for CGI scripts. It was later generalized to also display this information in plain text.) After this module is activated, if an uncaught exception occurs, a detailed, formatted report will be displayed. The report includes a traceback showing excerpts of the source code for each level, as well as the values of the arguments and local variables to currently running functions, to help you debug the problem. Optionally, you can save this information to a file instead of sending it to the browser.</p> <p>To enable this feature, simply add this to the top of your CGI script:</p> <div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="kn">import</span> <span class="nn">cgitb</span> <span class="n">cgitb</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">enable</span><span class="p">()</span> </pre></div> </div> <p>The options to the <a class="reference internal" href="#cgitb.enable" title="cgitb.enable"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">enable()</span></tt></a> function control whether the report is displayed in the browser and whether the report is logged to a file for later analysis.</p> <dl class="function"> <dt id="cgitb.enable"> <tt class="descclassname">cgitb.</tt><tt class="descname">enable</tt><big>(</big><span class="optional">[</span><em>display</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>logdir</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>context</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>format</em><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><big>)</big><a class="headerlink" href="#cgitb.enable" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><p id="index-1">This function causes the <a class="reference internal" href="#module-cgitb" title="cgitb: Configurable traceback handler for CGI scripts."><tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">cgitb</span></tt></a> module to take over the interpreter’s default handling for exceptions by setting the value of <a class="reference internal" href="sys.html#sys.excepthook" title="sys.excepthook"><tt class="xref py py-attr docutils literal"><span class="pre">sys.excepthook</span></tt></a>.</p> <p>The optional argument <em>display</em> defaults to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">1</span></tt> and can be set to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">0</span></tt> to suppress sending the traceback to the browser.
