Hi,

Complete newbie to all this malarky, but when I saw XOOPS it looks exactly what I've been looking for.... if I could get it to work!

My environment:
Windows 2003 server (standard)
IIS 6
MySQL 4.1.11
php 4.3.11
Xoops 2.0.10

I initially had the database connection problem but solved that with the old_password fix which worked perfectly. The installation completed with green lights across the board.

Now I get a blank page :(

Having read the Blank Page FAQ, I didn't get very far untill I edited my php.ini file and set "register_globals=on", then I got the following error messages:

I tried everything mentioned in the FAQ and nothing made a difference. One thing I'm not too sure about is this bit:
"%%20^200^200DC337%%"
Looking at line 1225 in Smarty.class.php it looks to me as if there's a problem with the "$_smarty_compile_path" variable, but I've no idea where it's going wrong.

Now my programming skills reach their peak with some alarmingly over-complex .kix scripts and some VB scripts which truely define the word "Basic", as such I've come to a grinding halt with this little project and would greatly appreciate anyone else's input.

The test site is at http://red.typesure.com/xoops if ya want to take a look.

Cheers,
Teebags.

Hey teebags,

Great to see another IIS user on the boards . Have you setup your NTFS permissions? You'll need to ensure that the IUSR_ account has read & write NTFS permissions to the cache, template_c and upload directotries within your XOOPS root directory. The IUSR_ account is the user account IIS uses to access files, so it is necessary that it has the appropriate permissions.

Yup, permissions are all set as you described.

Have you tried forcing a reset on those permissions? might also be worth just manually deleting the files in template_c so fresh ones are created.

Did a full reset of the permissions with no effect. Also wiped everything from the template_c folder as suggested, still nothing :(

I'll do some more tinkering today.

Got it working!

Changed the permissions to Modify instead of just write on the relevant directories and it all started working. :)

Now to try and do it all over again for my proper site.. lol

Thanks for the input.
