Topic: PHP blank pages

[jahlewis]

After upgrading a php application (tiki 1.9.3.1 from 1.9.2 www.tikiwiki.org), I'm now getting blank pages, with the following error in /var/log/messages:

May  4 12:57:18 gluon httpd: PHP Warning:  (null)(): Failed opening '/home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/tiki-setup.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear-addons:/usr/share/pear') in Unknown on line 0

I've tried adding and removing PhpBaseDir from the db accounts to no avail.

Where should I look for answers?  Would this be a good FAQ question?

Help... thanks.

Alot of the time blank pages are due to permission problems. Do a ls -la in the directory and see who owns what.

I've tried all sorts of permissions attempts, from chmod -R 777 etc.

Its in Primary, and the user is admin, group is www for now.

The setup.php i'm trying to run works when the permissions check fails, but when I fix the permissions, I get the blank page with no php errors in /var/log/messages

What should I do?
