I'm running PHPBugtracker on a Redhat LAMP install (4.3.9) and the latest release of the tracker(1.0.3). I've ran the "pear install OLE-beta" and pear install Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer-beta" commands successfully, but when I try to download a spreadsheet I get a blank page.
The URL in the browser is (http://bugtracker.m80apps.com/query.php?xl=1).
It fails on Mac Leopard with Firefox, and also Windows 2003 with IE.
The page is completely blank with no markup.
Your thoughts please.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Well, in fact the page would be blank, because it's just delivering an attachment. If you've got something like FireFox Live HTTP Headers you can see what phpBugTracker returns. In my case:
I found the problem. I had Pear pointing to a local install directory. Once I pointed the Pear to the global directory everything worked perfectly. Thanks for the quick response. I'll log in as myself next time.

HTTP/1.x 200 OK

Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel
So it's a content-type of "ms-excel", with a filename ending in ".xls". Is your browser set up to accept such a download correctly?
Also check the phpBugTracker config page. Did the red text talking about Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer go away when you installed the pear module?
