Blank page after instalation

I've downloaded the latest 2.03 release of XOOPS last night and did a instalation this morning.
Everything went smooth from start to finish, didn't see a red light during the whole instalation.

It was a dissapointment to see only a blankpage appear when I visited my site.

Everything is up to date. MySQL, PHP, XOOPS latest release but reading trough this forum there seem to be some coding issues. I don't have these problems with any of the other CMS's such as PHP-Nuke and PN.

I'm particulary interested in the OSCommerce module since I like to develope the same thing for PN.

Hopefully someone with the same problem can help me get XOOPS going so I can test out the great work on this module.

Regards, Mnemo

I personally went through that to no avail. Everything in that troubleshooter checked out. Still blank page.

It's quite frustrating. I've used just about all CMS's. This one has got me stopped in my tracks.

The whole blank page deal is a big problem. I get no errors, even after going through the troubleshooter. Installer went through no problem.

Hope you guys find a resolution soon.

Keep digging ... there is *always* an error message behind the blank page problem... There is really nothing we can do until you are able to produce an error message. *Many* different types of problems can result in an error, and all *fatal errors* lead to a blank page.

In particular, if you are running your own host, check php.ini and make sure "display_errors" is "on". If you are with a host provider, you can override this setting in a .htaccess file, if they run apache.

; Print out errors (as a part of the output).  For production web sites,
; you're strongly encouraged to turn this feature off, and use error logging
; instead (see below).  Keeping display_errors enabled on a production web site
; may reveal security information to end users, such as file paths on your Web
; server, your database schema or other information.
display_errors = On

; Even when display_errors is on, errors that occur during PHP's startup
; sequence are not displayed.  It's strongly recommended to keep
; display_startup_errors off, except for when debugging.
display_startup_errors = On


Maybe it's me.. Does this seem right?
same prob..

Xoops Test spot

Let me just add that the 1.3.1 stable version works fine on the same server.

Do you have debugging turned on from XOOPS Administration preferences? (General Preferences | PHP Debugging)

If you're having trouble getting to admin page, you can edit include/common.php... around line 83, instead of 'error_reporting(0)', put 'error_reporting(E_ALL)'.

Finally! an error message with that one! (I think this whole topic may solve lots of people's problems.)
Now what?

Fatal error: Failed opening required '/var/www/html/jer/class/smarty/Smarty.class.php' (include_path='.:/php/includes:/usr/share/php') in /var/www/html/jer/class/template.php on line 38

Hmmm, strange, it can't find one of your files. Does the indicated file exist on your server? Is it in the correct place? Looks like maybe the unzipping/uploading (however you get your files onto your server) didn't work properly... maybe try installing the files again and see if that fixes it.
