Moving (replicating) ZC 1.2.6 from functioning, live Linux host server to local WinXPPro machine (in preperation for 1.3.x conversion). Followed the steps outlined here:

http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.p...Switch_Servers

Successfully completed Steps 1 through 5. During Step 2, the newly installed ZC functioned perfectly - both the cart and the admin. No warning flags during install (all green). At Step 6, I download and copy the "fix_cache_key.php" file to my ZC folder and open it in a browser: http://localhost:8088/zc1.2.6/fix_cache_key.php

THE PROBLEM: After opening the above URL, the browser window display is blank - no text, images or forms, no server errors, no PHP errors. Literally nothing. Navigating to the admin page: http://localhost:8088/zc1.2.6/admin/login.php

... it too is blank (i.e. no admin login. Nothing displayed. No PHP or server errors - just blank).

PHP "ALL_ERRORS" are on. No error messages present in Apache error log. Apache access log shows:

127.0.0.1 - - [19/Nov/2006:09:08:19 -0800] "GET /zc1.2.6/fix_cache_key.php HTTP/1.1" 200 742
127.0.0.1 - - [19/Nov/2006:09:08:45 -0800] "GET /zc1.2.6/admin/login.php HTTP/1.1" 200 598
127.0.0.1 - - [19/Nov/2006:09:08:57 -0800] "GET /zc1.2.6/index.php HTTP/1.1" 200 5298

As for the cart itself: http://localhost:8088/zc1.2.6/index.php - it's appears to be fully functional in all ways.

Any assistance most appreciated - just holler if additional info is required.

Thanks!
