Hi gang, I've just set Mantis up on an externally-hosted server, and when I try to open the index.php file I get a blank screen. WTF ? Any ideas ? Jon |

I've just installed 1.0.0.a2 on an externally-hosted site and when I try to view index.php, I just get a blank screen. Although I have a file phpcheck.php that displays the contants returned by phpinfo() perfectly well. Being new at php, I'm not quite sure where to look next.

You're probably missing the mysql module for php. On Fedora Core 3 you need the package php-mysql. Other distros/OSs will probably differ.

There are instructions on the site (I don't recall offhand, but it's a simple operation). (OK, I looked up a link) http://us3.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysql.php It's probably a good time to add a check for that at the head of the DB init code with a better message than a blank screen (I know a few projects in this state now).
