I have spent 8 or more hours searching and reading trying to find a fix for the blank page.

My setup
Win2003 SP1 server
IIS 6
PHP 5.2.1 using isapi
MySql 4.1.18
phpMyAdmin 2.8.1
phpbb 2.0.19

I know php and MySQL are working together because phpbb is still working on my site.

I get all green lights when installing. But get a blank page when I click on "here" in the last page or if I enter the path in a browser to htdocs\index.php. Have tried to create new website in IIS at \htdocs - doesn't work either.
Can someone point me in the right direction to debug this issue? I can not find any debuggin info for php or xoops.

Thanks for looking

Have tried to use PHP 5.2.1 php-cgi.exe and receive
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers.
so that doesn't look any better.

This could help...

There's a tutorial at IIS Resources, but the site seems to be down at the moment.

I googled iis-resources.com cgi application misbehaved and found some information that may be relevant. Check the cache version... until the iis site comes back online....

google short link

Good luck

Hey guys -

Sorry that the site was offline - we recently moved to a new Data Center & are dealing with growing pains.

As for your Blank pages issue, all you need to is make sure that the IUSR account has Modify permissions to the Cache, templates_c, & uploads directory.

That will resolve your blank pages issue.

Let me know if you need any additional help....

Skenow this would be an excellent addition to your awesome write-up on "Starting XOOPS Web-site."
