I have used XOOPS for over 3 years with the same hoster. They recently changed server's/server ips. Now XOOPS doesnt work, I even uploaded a fresh copy and get a white page. They tell me that nothing was downgraded its a problem with the script, can someone please look at this php info file http://muckalucks.com/info.php and maybe offer some insite to why XOOPS won't function.

Did you adapt the XOOPS_ROOT_PATH in mainfile.php to the value as shown in document_root in the Apache table?
(plus the subdirectories, if XOOPS is not installed directly in public_htm)
If you have Protector, there is a trust path to verify as well.
Also to check is the databasename, as are the user and password needed to login on mySQL.
All thes values can be adapted in mainfile.php.

I don't control the server and all its software options haha I thought it was appropriate, no matter how much we might know you always need someone else's help

Just so its clear, this is the issue. XOOPS stopped working suddenly the page loads and loads till you get a white page.But when you access the admin area you get the normal login screen (because it was set to this sites offline login)and the admin area functions but the main page is indeed blank.
Same thing with the old install exept you get this
messsage
You don't have the right to access this area

If the page does not automatically reload, please click here
because it wasn't set to site offline for everyone but admins.
When I log in through admin panel every page works like user.php forum etc. except index.php 0_o hmmm seams I have found a bug in xoops?

Hi,

if you can login and work with admin can you enable phpdebug (try both modes) and look for errors in the main page. If you have access to server error logs you may look for errors there. Maybe your hosting provider can help with that...

What is the XOOPS version?
What modules do you have installed?
Do you have module for startup?
What blocks do you have for startup page?
Any hacks?

You may try to disable blocks on top page (except for main menu, user menu, login) and see if this makes a change. If you have a module for startup disable that too.

Also you may try to clear cache and templates cache...

There is not much that index.php does and user.php does not so, I think you may have your index.php file broken. My sugestion is to replace index.php with the original one.

WOW! amazing, I guess the fresh install was just currupt and I did in fact take your advice by uploading a new index.php page and it is now working..Thanks for pointing out the obvious.
