Blank pages after Tiki 6.0 update Posted by Jan Krohn 12 Nov 2010 08:29 GMT-0000 posts: 50 After the update, I get blank pages. I already executed the Tiki installer successfully. How can I fix this? http://list.vic-fontaine.com/ Thanks for any help! 😊 Jan
Posted by Rick Sapir / Tiki for Smarties 12 Nov 2010 14:16 GMT-0000 posts: 3665 Blank pages are commonly caused by PHP memory issues. See this FAQ... Some things to check: What version did you upgrade from? To? Were any SQL errors reported during the error (I think page 5 of the installer wizard)? Were you using any customized themes or modified files? HTH, - Rick | My Tiki Blog | My Tiki UserPage Need more help? Try Tiki for Dummies Smarties: A beginner's guide.

Posted by Jan Krohn 13 Nov 2010 18:03 GMT-0000 posts: 50 I've seen the FAQ, but I don't think the problem is with PHP. I've also done a clean installation, and everything was ok. I updated version 5.3 to 6.0. There was an SQL error. But since it said it was normal, I ignored it... And I didn't modify anything. So I still need help... Jan

It was resolved by re-copying the source files on the db folder to the server, and then re-installed Tiki 6.0. No SQL errors appeared then anymore and everything was reestablished ok. The problem was caused by an incomplete FTP of some files, especially SQL files that creates/updates databases. Let me know how you get on with this.
Posted by Jan Krohn 20 Nov 2010 22:56 GMT-0000 posts: 50 This was a good try, and looked very promising in the beginning... I restored the 5.3 backup, updated back to 6.0 and started the installer. This time, there were no SQL errors. I was very happy about that - but in the end, it's still the same - just blank pages... Any more ideas...? Jan
Posted by Jan Krohn 20 Nov 2010 23:20 GMT-0000 posts: 50 OK, fixed it, but the solution was somewhat obscure: Turned on error reporting in Tiki installer -> Site running ok afterwards. So turned off error reporting again in Tiki installer -> blank pages again. Turned on error reporting in Tiki installer -> site ok. Turned off error reporting in Tiki admin -> blank pages. Turned on error reporting in Tiki installer agian ->> site running and not touchin error reporting options any more...! Jan
Posted by alfredpr 12 Feb 2011 21:37 GMT-0000 posts: 1 I got exactly the same thing and turning on PHP error reporting allowed the pages to be viewable (notice that I didn't say fixed the problem) 😊 Also, 'Visible to admin only' has to be off. Of course you can't change these settings from the site admin if the pages come up blank, so I went directly into the database with PHPMyAdmin. In the tiki_preferences table, change error_reporting_level to something other than -1 (I used 1) and set error_reporting_adminonly to 'n' The two PHP errors that are reported are: Cannot set directive after finalization on line 246 in file /home/.../lib/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/Config.php Funny thing is that two nights ago I updated another site (same server) from 4.1 to 6.1 with no problem at all.
