I'm having this exact behaviour on 2 machines right now. I've searched the entire XOOPS site and there are no fixes for this one that I can see.
Here's what I've done:
downloaded and unpacked XOOPS 2.0.7.3, installed MySQL 3.23.58 and all the required packages. The system is a redhat machine, btw.
I follow the instructions, set permissions on dirs and the file and create a database and a user, using the GRANT option to give this user FULL rights for testing purposes. Start the installation, pick english (next), some text (next), all green lights for the permissions (next), put in all the info for the dbhost, dbuser, dbpass etc (next), confirm it (next), it saves the data, all green (next), confirm paths/URL all green (next), confirm database (next),
and I get a white page..
View source gives me this on mozilla:
<html><body></body></html>
and this using MSIE:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="test/html; charset=utf-8"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>
The other pages I've found on this site all seems to be discussing blank pages AFTER a successful install.
My friend had this exact problem a while ago and solved it, though he doesn't remember how. The fact that I get the exact same problem on 2 different machines (both OS and hardware) tells me that either I'm doing something completely fscked up, or, there's something wrong with the install script.
Oh, and I've tried using localhost, the hostname, the hostname with the FQDN and then a totally bogus name and it surprised me that the installer didn't barf at me there.
I've checked the logs. No errors in the apache logfiles, nothing in the MySQL logfiles.. nada. I don't know what to try next. Suggestions?
