Moving xoops from a local environment to a hosted server

I have customized XOOPS on my local development environment and now I am trying to move it to a payed host.
What I did is:
I uploaded the dir containing my local install to the server.
I created a sql-dump from with my local phpmyadmin and dumped it on the server.
I modified mainfile.php to connect to the new database.

The problem is:
All the pages contain no data(display as white). If I try to run install I get No permission.

What do I need to do to make it work. I cannot install a new one since I made many modifications and translations.

Thanks for the help

before transferring the local database to remote server is always better set the PHP debug to on

then you have also the set che permission of folder and files for /cache/ and templates_c/ directories (CHMOD 777)

therefore the cause of your blank page can depend also on you server configuration or php version look at

Thanks!
I have found the wiki and changed the debug mode and chmoded the dirs but the page is stil blank.
My local environment is windows and the server is linux....maybe this has something to do with the problem?

what version of php do you have installed on your server?

create an info.php files with this content:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

point the browser tohttp://yoursite/info.php and check the PHP version

xoops 2 does not works on linux server only with php version older than 4.1.0

When you modified the mainfile.php, did you also remember to change the XOOPS URL that's defined in there? That too will cause problems. I've accidently done that to myeself a couple of times doing the same thing you are.
