First you need to disable the WP Fatal Error Handler by adding this to your wp-config.php file to stop the message.
define('WP_DISABLE_FATAL_ERROR_HANDLER', true);
Then you need to turn on debugging so that you can see what is really going on by adding or editing the following in wp-config.php.
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);
