XAMPP VM for Mac not showing uncaught Exceptions, returns 500 error

I am teaching a class and have a student who installed XAMPP for Mac using the VM version. Everything works great, they're able to view their localhost and all their files, but when an uncaught exception should show up on the page, the page instead returns a 500 error. "This Page isn't working, unable to handle request, HTTP ERROR 500". I don't have a Mac, so I can't troubleshoot it easily, but I assume there's a permissions setting, logging level, or server type (production vs sandbox) that I need to have them flip in order to see uncaught exceptions. Where would I find that?

Have you tried adding this before your php script

ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
