I installed XOOPS and it finished without any errors but when I try and go to the index page it is blank. I folled all the troubleshooting steps I could find and nothing has worked. I turned globals on in PHP and all my other infor seems correct.

I did notice that when I view my apache access_log it shows redirects for all the sites I'm hosting except the XOOPS one I made. Here is a clip from that log:

10.0.0.254 - - [13/Aug/2004:01:15:37 -0500] "GET /Thumbnails/IMG_0584TN.jpg HTTP/1.0" 304 - "http://www.kruseco.com/" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"
10.0.0.254 - - [13/Aug/2004:01:15:37 -0500] "GET /Thumbnails/IMG_0582TN.jpg HTTP/1.0" 304 - "http://www.kruseco.com/" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"
10.0.0.254 - - [13/Aug/2004:01:16:16 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 - "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"
10.0.0.254 - - [13/Aug/2004:01:28:41 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 - "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"

The first two are sites I host that work fine. The next two jsut have a "-" and no redirect when it tries to access the index page...

Any thoughts??
Thanks!

If I'm hosting the page from a /home/whatever directory, and the /home is an NFS mount from another server would this have any affect on Xoops?

How about my firewall, what ports need to be open for xoops, I have http and https open. MySQL shouldn't need it's port open on the firewall should it? Since it is used local.

Thanks.

Ok I think I figured something out... maybe..

I think I turned on debugging, so now I atleast see something when I see an error when I go to my index page now.

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function: session_set_save_handler() in /home/bayertm/public_html/include/common.php on line 178"

I found the line that has this in it:

"session_set_save_handler(array(&$sess_handler, 'open'), array(&$sess_handler, 'close'), array(&$sess_handler, 'read'), array(&$sess_handler, 'write'), array(&$sess_handler, 'destroy'), array(&$sess_handler, 'gc'));

session_start();"

Does that help at all????

Turns out XOOPS needs 'php4-session' installed, I'm runnig on SuSE 9.1 which does not install it by default. Works like a charm now.
