Getting a little tired of looking and trying so;

I wanted to copy a site I am working on and downloaded the files and database sql file of the working site.

All the blocks in the admin page are missing,
I tried installing a new version locally with a new user and empty database and I get the same problem.

versions: 2.0.7.3 and 2.0.9.2

Why would XOOPS install fine but have absolutely no modules in the blocks admin page for any user?

Turn on MySQL debug and you'll probably see a 'can't open database.tablename.myi' error in red or something similar. If this is the case, then there is something wrong with the MySQL configuration, probably the MySQL user that owns the tables of your XOOPS site doesn't have the correct permissions to write to the database server's /tmp/ folder. Anyways, a lot of technical talk, but basically it is a server configuration issue. Contact your hosting provider or your server admin.
