    Default Re: When installing blank page after phpbb

    I'm having the same problem. What is a PM? (other than 'personal message')...

    Cheers,
    Paul

    Default Re: When installing blank page after phpbb

    lostpencil,

    PM is personal messages...

    What tools does your host provide? cPanel or?
    Do you know the LAMP environment? phpsuexec or?

    other details that might assist...

    Default Re: When installing blank page after phpbb

    DirectAdmin panel.
    Linux 2.4.20-8
    Apache 1.3.29 (Unix)
    MySQL 4.0.16-standard
    PHP 4.3.4

    Does that help? I followed the permission settings in the install procedure. Everything was green checkmarks (with the exception of one yellow exclamation mark under: PHP Output BUffer (gzip) = OFF).

    edit: the link the blank page is on is: .../index.php?main_page=config_checkup&action=write

    Cheers,
    Paul

    Ok, I figured it out. I changed how I transfered the files to my server. I used FileZilla instead of Windows Explorer. I suspect it has something to do with ascii/binary transfer using ftp. Anyway, now the store setup screen appears. Thanks for listening!

    Cheers,
    Paul

    Thanks lostpencil, your comment helped.

    I used dreamweaver to ftp the file up and it worked fine. I just resubmitted the phpBB form and got the config_checkup page.

    I don't know what is up with filezila. I also had config files missing from includes and admin/includes and had to load them manually but those went up fine individually.
