Architecture / Installation


Blank page appears, requiring refresh to get intended page

I have bookmarked several inside pages (wiki, etc).
When alternating between them, about 30% of the time
I get a blank page instead of the intended page.

If I hit refresh though, the intended page comes up.

This problem seems most pronounced with /tiki-my_tiki.php.
(happening almost every time). Seems very flaky, am I the only one with this problem?

BACKGROUND: the site is hosted at dreamhost.com, on a server with 1 gig of memory. I'm using IE for testing.

The blank page is sporadic. For example, I just linked to the
wiki and blog pages just fine. Then I linked to the Create a
Blog page just fine. But then I tried to preview the text for
my new blog, and a blank page came up for tiki-
edit_blog.php.

Then when I clicked on refresh, the blog preview came up
just fine. It requires a refresh to fix the problem.

Whats the PHP Memory Limit set to?

I'll investigate further on a 1.8 install

Hi- It's currently set to 8 mb. Dreamhost is emphatic about keeping the limit at 8 mb, so I can't even test if it's a ram related problem.

They also insist it's tikiwiki being beta software, and not their servers have too little ram.

(Is there a list somewhere on tikiwiki.org of people's favorite domains for a fast/flawless tiki install?)

(Also, might going back to 1.7.5 fix this problem, and speed up the site?)

Thanks,
Sam



I am having the exact same problem. I just installed. I am using 1.8.5 on Linux, php memory limit is 32MB. Please let me know if I need to provide more info.

Damian,

Please help. I really need your help on this one.
