PhpWiki / Discussion / Help: Installation

Gavin Jolly - 2003-08-25

I have run the configurator.php script and renamed the Index-user.php it created to index.php as per the instructions.

I set admin user and password.
I selected the database type
When I go to the index,php page it is entirely blank. View Source gives only the following text:
<html><body></body></html>
that may be default text in phoenix browser.

The web server runs okay and I am running other php sites on the same server.

I have stripped out the index.php page and changed the passwords for obvious reasons.

  I'm having the same problem, I think I traced the problem down to this line in handleAction but I'm not really 100% on what it even does. I'm on WinXP and using MySQL.
  
  function handleAction () {
  ...
  $this->{$method}();
  ...
  }

  Its not just Windows. I get the same thing on a fresh install on a Redhat 9 box with mysql back end.

  Interestingly enough, changing my theme resulted in things starting to work again. I will have to dig further, but something about the default theme, on its own and out of the box, is broken; the mac and hawaiian themes do display correctly. More as I find out more.

  Hi,
  
  I had exactly the same problem with all version 1.3.6. I also tried to trace the problem and found execution did not return from a section for with $compress==true in buffer_output(). I found out that it worked ok when I added the following line which was commented out by default:
  
  define('COMPRESS_OUTPUT', false);
  
  Maybe give it a try. I must say I don't why it did not work with compression enabled.

    I had actually uncommented that line when I first installed, and the problems were still there. For me, changing the theme has been the only solution I've found so far.

    I was having the exact same problem. I uncommented the COMPRESS_OUTPUT line and this fixed my problem!
    
    Thanks!
    
    Warm Regards,

  I just downloaded this thing, put it on both an Apache box and an IIS 6.0 box and it is full of bugs.
  
  Perhaps it was designed for an earlier version of PHP and I would not recommend messing with it unless you want to do a lot of troubleshooting (and you need to be proficient with PHP).
  
  The way to fix your problem (and this is just for THIS posted problem), is to :
  
  1. Go into your INDEX.PHP file and make sure the main.php file is included. This means you need to comment out the line that reads
  
  if (SCRIPT_FILENAME == __FILE__)
  
  After this, at least on a Windows Hardware (irregardless of the IS you are using), you will need to heavily modify the config file INCLUDE path variable. You need to place several paths in here (just watch your errros and that will tell you which ones to include.)
  
  On this last point, I do not advise trying to fix individual includes (I tried this.) There are so many of them that you end up with errors regarding dependant files on the fixes you ran.
  
  But, that will get you past the blank index page.
  
  Good luck.

    i had the same problem:
    - windows xp
    - php 4.3.9
    - mysql 4.1.7-nt
    - abyss web server 1.2.3.0 :)
    - opera 7.54
    
    i always got this message:
    Error 200 - OK
    
    the solution was:
    - edit index.php
    - comment out or delete the line:
    if (SCRIPT_FILENAME == FILE)
    
    if you set DATABASE_TYPE = file in your config.ini-file then you should also add this line:
    define('USE_DB_SESSION',false);
    
    good luck!
