Laravel 4 - Catch errors

It seems like its not possible to catch errors yourself, insted of getting the laravel 4 error output.

For example if i try:

    $databaseConfig = Config::get('database.connections.mysql');
    $connect = mysql_connect($databaseConfig['host'], $databaseConfig['username'], $databaseConfig['password']);
    if (!$connect)
    {
        return 'error';
    }

If a error occurs i won't get the "error", insted laravel shows me the exception (on that orange site).

The same if you go ahead and try a

try {
    $pdo = DB::connection('mysql')->getPdo();
}
    catch(PDOException $exception) {
    return Response::make('Database error! ' . $exception->getCode());
}

Is there any way to do that?

I know my answer is very late. But after referencing from above answers, I hadn't solved the problem.

After looking at this site (very clear explanation here): https://stackify.com/php-try-catch-php-exception-tutorial/

Here is an additional answer:

mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR | MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT);

Take a look at this page: http://laravel.com/docs/errors

Quick example:

App::error(function(PDOException $e)
{
    Log::error($exception);

    return Response::make('Database error! ' . $exception->getCode());
});

App::error(function(Exception $exception) {
echo '<pre>';
echo 'MESSAGE :: ';
    print_r($exception->getMessage());
echo '<br> CODE ::';
    print_r($exception->getCode());
echo '<br> FILE NAME ::';
    print_r($exception->getFile());
echo '<br> LINE NUMBER ::';
    print_r($exception->getLine());
die();// if you want than only
});

put this code in your route file...
you will get ERROR MESSAGE with FILE NAME and ERROR LINE
all most errors will be covered.

The code you provided should work just fine. If I put this in my routes.php, I see the expected error string (without the orange).

Route::get('error', function() {
    try
    {
        $pdo = DB::connection('mysql')->getPdo();
    }
    catch(PDOException $exception)
    {
        return Response::make('Database error! ' . $exception->getCode());
    }
    return 'all fine';
});

What might be happening here, is that your PDOException isn't caught. Try added a backslash to the PDOException so you'll be sure it's the one defined in the root and not in the current namespace. 

catch(\PDOException $exception)

Also, try to run the code directly from within the routes.php file and see if it behaves the same.
