De.scription and Message

Morning folks.

I just did a clean install of 141 this morning and profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=2 is coming up blank
(Public :: Base Info)

all other screens seem to be coming up

any ideas?

Imajica

[Imajica]

just installed 141 on my home server
windows 2k3 server, php4 and it works fine

anyone else on php5 seeing an issue?

[shedt_v]

yeah i'm on php5 too nothing is showing there.

Just blank, no private message the user or anything under base.

I'm using 1.4.1 RC 5 right now, going to upgrade soon...

[Imajica]

are you on 5.0.4 too?

[shedt_v]

yes i think so, for sure php5.


yeah

PHP5 Version 5.0.4

[Imajica]

I've never upgraded php and I don't want to learn on my active site.
does anyone on Dev know if this is a 5.0.4 issue only?

[Imajica]

I don't code... but I went thru till my eyes crossed
everything LOOKS to be in order

any ideas?

PCP can be a problem as it doesn't provide error messages at times. Can you check to see what your display_errors is set to in your php.ini file? Even if you don't have access to your php.ini file you can check using phpinfo in the ACP. If it's not on, turn it on and see if you get any error messages in your profile afterwards.

If you don't have access to your php.ini file, you can add this code to common.php to turn it on(may be blocked on some servers).

OPEN common.php
FIND

Code: Select all

if ( !defined('IN_PHPBB') ){     die("Hacking attempt");}

AFTER ADD

Code: Select all

ini_set('display_errors','On');

It may also be a memory_limit issue, you can increase it through the php.ini file or add this to your common.php file as well.

Code: Select all

ini_set('memory_limit','16');

16 being the memory in MB.

[Imajica]

memory_limit 32M 32M
display_errors Off Off

I did add ini_set('display_errors','On'); to common.php

no errors show up...
just this:

what's next?

[Imajica]

well I have a guy coming in to help me upgrade php on my server because I just don't have the experience

unless anyone else has a bright shiny idea...

[shedt_v]

yeah i'm having the same problem, memory set to 16. going to change the php.ini file.

[Imajica]

ok I am officially boned

it's not easy to update my VPS to a higher version of php

I'm open to ANY suggestions here short of changing hosts

[Imajica]

other folks on the same service I am running have been having issues with
"php_admin_value open_basedir"

any chance this could be contributing to my problem as well?

If you are using php version 5.xx and have white pages and selected mysqli during install (may be the default I can't remember)...? Open you config.php and change mysqli to mysql

[Imajica]

I didn't select mysqli... I chose mysql..

Code: Select all
