[phpslash-users] Install Problem - blank screen

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Hi,

I'm trying to install PHPSlash for the first time on my OpenBSD 3.2/Apache
1.3.26/PHP 4.2.3 box.  I initially didn't have the include pathset
correctly, so I got a bunch of include errors on the test.php page - but
otherwise, it looked okay.  When I corrected the include path issue,
however, and then I went to the test.php page, all I got was a blank screen
with the following source:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html;
charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

If I mess up the include path in my php.ini file again (i.e. point it to
some random folder), I can see the test.php page, only with all the include
errors.  So there is something wrong with my includes - when I point it to
the correct path, I can't see ANYTHING.  I did check my local.inc file (and
the local4.inc file for good measure) to make sure that it had the database
info correct, but it looks really broken.

I followed the instructions on the site to a tee - however, I do have one
question that may have something to do with this problem.  I installed
PHPLib separately and got it working, and then I noticed that there was a
phplib folder when I untarred my phpslash file, and that it had a bunch of
new files in it with a suffix of 4(i.e. local4.inc, etc.).  So I tried
configuring my server and PHP to point to THAT folder, but the same problem
(blank screen) occurred.  Should I be configuring the machine to look at
phpslash's phplib folder?  Or was I correct the first time to configure it
for the original phplib install?

Any help would be much appreciated.  I really want to make this thing work
and I have run out of ideas.

Thanks!
