Blank Page - Help!

[tiller]

Hi,

I have just installed opengoo for the 3rd time with the same result - of a blank page..

The installation is on an apache (linux) 1.3.37, PHP 5.2.6, and MySQL version  4.1.22-standard  (..with InnoDB , as the last install page tells me in the line "InnoDB storage engine is supported"..)

After reading a few of the similar posts here, I changed the config.php line of:
 define('DEBUG', true); - from false to true.. However, I can not see any debug info. not even in the cache folder.....

Any ideas what can be done to solve this?

Thanks!

Hi.. When you install your OpenGoo, what is the Address that you're using? Probably you need to configure properly the host address, if you are using an external server type the IP address instead of the Hostname in the config.php (/config/config.php), cause sometimes it could happen that the DNS resolver is not configured...

ex. Remote
define('ROOT_URL', 'http://192.168.0.10/opengoo/'); here the root of OpenGoo is "/opengoo/"

ex. Local
define('ROOT_URL', 'http://127.0.0.1'); here the root is "/"

Hi martino87r and thanks for your reply.

I installed opengoo on an external server, eg. http://mydomain.org/ . The DNS for this server works fine..

Following your idea, I added a trailing / - but it didnt help either..  Humm can it be because I installed on server root? (Sounds highly unlikely..)

[soomon]

inf config/config.php there is a setting named root-url
is this setting correct?

[tiller]

Hi soomon and thanks for your reply!

I think the settings are correct. They are as:
define('ROOT_URL', 'http://artileri.net/');

(artileri = the domain name)

Looks correct, doesn't it?

Maybe you need to set a higher PHP memory limit. Try setting it to 32 MB if your server allows it.

Check this post: http://forums.opengoo.org/index.php?topic=142.0

or search the forums for 'php memory limit'.

Cheers.

Hi ignacio and thanks for pointing this out.

Yes, I forgot to mention that indeed I looked at that thread and the memory_limit on the server should be fine at 64M, for both master and local values..

This is slowly becoming a bit of a mystery...

[martino87r]

Can you check the log files for PHP and Apache?

Probably if there's something wrong then it must be within the logs, otherwise it's a mystery

[tiller]

The error log files only point to files that do not exist.. Which is strange, as they are there..
e.g. File does not exist: /path_to_/public_html/index.php&c=login

[martino87r]

Hmm i saw that the PHP is working, MySQL is OK... so what's the problem???
Seems that the setup cannot complete the installation steps (http://artileri.net/public/index.php) look here...

Strange...

[tiller]

yes.. it all seems fine.. even the last stage step.. It seems to work, but keeps coming back with asking to register..

Maybe that is the problem? Maybe it doesnt get that I have already registered..?

[tiller]

I wonder if this could be something with writable files/folders..

[ignacio]

You could try a test installation with all permissions to files and folders just to discard that option.

A simple chmod -R 777 <your opengoo dir> will do.

Also, if you copied correctly your log, '/path_to_/public_html/index.php&c=login' is not actually a file, the file would be '/path_to_/public_html/index.php'. The rest would be parameters, only that the parameters passed to OpenGoo should come after a question mark, like this: 'index.php?c=access&a=login' and not after a '&'. Could this have something to do with your problem?

[tiller]

Hi ignacio, thanks for the idea.

Changing the permissions to 777 in all files and folders produces a message of:
Internal Server Error

Well.. At least some kind of message..

After moving from one domain to another domain and reinstalling anything I get a blank page too.

With debug mode = true I get this error:

"Fatal error: Class 'DB' not found in /home/.../public_html/init.php on line 112"

Any idea?
