See the following thread for the solution. The short version is that you need to also install the xoopseditor files.

I use GIJOE's Avaman module myself. It's on the second page of his downloads. It also allows for smiley installation. You can upload single files or bulk.

The Xoopseditor file is apparently now required for CBB installation, even if you don't wish to use fckeditor, koivi or whatever. It includes the basic editor that XOOPS has used for years.

For some of us, this new requirement wasn't evident as alternate editors have always been optional, requiring extra fiddling with files and often incompatibilities with some browsers. This file appears to be attempting to consolidate all editors into one place so that all modules can access editors easily. You have choices now right out of the box. Very smart.

You can get the file here, it is listed as a framework near the bottom. The most recent appears to be xoops-editor-moon:
http://dev.xoops.org/modules/xfmod/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1155

It goes in this directory (create it if none is there):
XOOPS/class/xoopseditor/

It DOES NOT go in XOOPS/frameworks/xoops22/class/xoopseditor as I've seen recommended in another thread.

Thank you phppp for your assistance. As always, you have gone above and beyond. I owe you several beers.

Account updated to have webmaster access. I'll create an ftp account for you this evening and send to your PM. Thanks for having a look.

I reinstalled from scratch this morning. New directory, new database, only mod is CBB. Still get the white pages.

I sent a PM to phppp with site access info for a webmaster account on my test server.

Here's my battle plan for this week:

I'll install earlier versions of CBB (prior to 3.05) this evening to see if the white pages are reproducible. If I find a version without white pages, I'll iteratively install more recent versions until white pages appear.

I'll install WAMP to see if there is a subtle difference between the XAMPP and WAMP packages.

I'll install XOOPS 3.0.14 and the most recent CBB to see if this might be a problem with 3.0.15.

I'll install the most recent version of XAMPP since mine is several months old. I presume JimLunsford is using the latest version?

I'll check settings as noted in Peekay's response. Thanks Peekay.

My server is dual processor. I'll install XAMPP on a single processor machine and test.

I'm very open to suggestions to track this down. My 2.2.3 site works fine. While I'd like to move it to 2.0.15 so I can take advantage of recent developments, my main site is stable. This white page issue is now more of a personal mission than a necessity since I really can (impatiently) wait till 2.3/2.4 is released.

Windows XP Media Edition

ApacheFriends XAMPP (basic package) version 1.5.0-pl1

+ Zend Optimizer 2.5.10a

I'll add to my list even though frameworks was referred to in item 6. :)

11) I used the latest frameworks. And since it was mentioned elsewhere in these threads that there had been an update on 10/15 (I think that was the date), I redownloaded just in case. Since I'm installing in 2.0.15 I did not delete the xoops22 directory.

/frameworks is located off of my root directory

I thought the forum washttp://xoopsforge.com/modules/newbb/ but I can't find the thread I referred to there. As such I must be wrong, the site I saw wasn't Xoops.org, Xoopsforge or the Chinese XOOPS and therefore not an official CBB support site. My apologies for my false statement.

I'm going to delete XOOPS 2.0.15 and reinstall from scratch as my next step in case a file got corrupted in XOOPS or a database table got messed up.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks for looking into this phppp (and Wizanda and Jen and and and everyone else that's been giving suggestions).

I'm still having the same problem as the original poster as well.

1) I've tried the items noted in the thread you posted as well as the solutions Wizanda (re: renaming a php file and setting editor) has posted.

2) I've uninstalled 3.06, deleted the files, downloaded a fresh copy and reinstalled.

3) I've also deleted the files, downloaded 3.05 and installed and still get the white space issues and inability to administer my forums.

4) I've checked the CBB support forum and found several users reporting the same issue with white pages, one with over 500 views and NO REPLIES. Absolutely amazing....

5) I've used the search function and checked the forums here on the XOOPS site daily for the last two weeks and while I haven't found a solution, I've seen that a lot of people are having this problem.

6) I've installed fckeditor even though I didn't want it to see if that would help. I've moved the files from root to frameworks and back again and finally uninstalled it.

7) I've turned on debug in both XOOPS and in CBB. I get the same report as the original poster. No errors. Nothing to track down and attempt to fix.

8) I've tried the default theme and other themes.

9) I've deleted the cache files before each update. I've updated the module after every change.

10) I've read and re-read the FAQ on white pages and can't find anything applicable since there are no errors.

I'm very frustrated at the moment. A bare-bones base install of XOOPS 2.0.15 and a base install of CBB 3.06 with newest framework refuses to function on the same machine that I have a site running XOOPS 2.2.3 with CBB 2.2 smoothly. Apache is setup properly and I have frequently set up testing sites on this machine successfully for the last several years. I want to downgrade the 2.2.3 site in order to upgrade but I just can't get the plain vanilla forums with an empty database to work for me.

Help?!?!?

Yes, Xampp works nicely from USB memory so it should do the same with CD's. It can use relative paths to allow for differing drive mappings per machine. Xampp is a remarkably versatile collection of open source programs and considering that it's free AND super stable....
