SMTP Debugging update

Hi, now in the Github gmail example SMTPDebug part looks like this:

$mail = new PHPMailer();
// //Tell PHPMailer to use SMTP
$mail->isSMTP();
// //Enable SMTP debugging
// // SMTP::DEBUG_OFF = off (for production use)
// // SMTP::DEBUG_CLIENT = client messages
// // SMTP::DEBUG_SERVER = client and server messages
$mail->SMTPDebug = SMTP::DEBUG_SERVER;

However, when I use it this updated way, my app crashes after submitting a form and I receive status 500 error. When I use it "old way" (setting it by number- 0, 1 or 2) it works just fine. I'm using MAMP as my local php environment.
Any clues why is it happening?

Is there a reason you're not using

$mail->SMTPDebug = SMTP::DEBUG_SERVER;

?

Not sure if that is a fix but that is the code I found in the gmail example (and in what you posted above)

I meant exactly your code. Sorry, small mistake in my post - corrected now. Anyway, not working neither with your nor mine version. Working with 0,1 or 2. Maybe MAMP has something to do with this?
