Ahhhh. So THAT's how you turn on PHP debug. Thank you.

bump

I just installed wfsections v. 1.07 on a fresh install of XOOPS 2.0.10 and for some odd reason many of the wfsections pages simply will not show up. They display only a blank page.

wfsections page - modules/wfsection/ - doesn't work
wfsection admin page - modules/wfsection/admin/index.php - doesn't work
General Configuration - modules/wfsection/admin/config.php - works
Sections Manager - modules/wfsection/admin/category.php?op=default - doesn't work
Article Management - modules/wfsection/admin/allarticles.php - doesn't work
Create New Article - modules/wfsection/admin/index.php?op=default - doesn't work
Upload Management - modules/wfsection/admin/filemanager.php - works
Weight Management - modules/wfsection/admin/reorder.php - doesn't work
Attached Files - modules/wfsection/admin/wfsfilesshow.php - doesn't work

Has anyone else had this problem? Is there something I need to do in order to make them show properly?

So it turns out that the problem was actually in the wfsection module. Inside the loadinfo function the php code was puking somewhere. I dunno why exactly, there's way too much code to debug. I'm thinkin' I'll just settle for an older version that works for sure.

Is PHP debug a compile time option? Or is it something i can set in the php.ini file?

Ok, sorry for the blatant cross posting of this problem. But I am beginning to think that this is the more appropriate place for it (mods if you feel the need to, delete the thread in the modules troubleshooting forum).

"I just did a completely fresh install of XOOPS 2.0.10 and now I am trying to install some modules that aren't included with XOOPS (wf-section in particular, but this problem is not limited to this module). When I go to the module admin page they simply don't show up. There are no errors, nothing is "wrong". It's as if it doesn't even exist. The modules are in the correct directory and they have the correct permissions. I've done this before and it's all worked fine. I can't understand why all of the sudden XOOPS just doesn't see any third party module I put in the modules directory. I even checked to make sure that the definition for the XOOPS root path was correct in mainfile.php. Does anyone have any clue as to what might be causing this behaviour?"

I have been trying to figure this out all day and have come up with no answer. I even went as far as restarting the apache2 server (which itself presented a host of problems completely unrelated to any of this). I have tested more third party modules and they all do not show up. Ownership and privleges are all still set to the proper settings, the same as they were when things were working. This is as clean an install as possible. I am stumped.

Nevermind, I figured it out. It had to do with a short perl script I wrote to make backups of XOOPS (and the database) before I made major changes that might break it. It seems I failed to update the value of XOOPS_ROOT_PATH in mainfile.php to point to the new path instead of pointing to the old XOOPS path.

I already posted the following in the Modules Troubleshooting forum, however I decided it might be a good idea to cross post it since I'm not sure if this is related to the modules themselves (as it happens with every module that doesn't come with Xoops) and this forum seems like it gets a lot more attention.

Hi. I just tried to install the document management system and the iMenu modules and for some reason they aren't showing up in the list of modules I can install. I've done this before and it worked fine. I have the directories containing the modules in the right place and they both are readable/writable by Xoops. I'm getting no error output, so it seems like it's not even seeing the modules. Anyone else out there had this problem? If so, what am I doing wrong?

Yeah that does make sense. I actually did check for that at first. Right now the modules are like this

/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/modules/iMenu/
/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/modules/dms/

and beneath each directory is all the files needed for the module, they're not in further sub-directories (which would cause a problem, right?). This has got me stumped. Being a n00b sucks.
