Blank page after config.php upload on Linode

edited April 2014 in Troubleshooting

I get the blank page when being directed to _install.php
Three tables are created in the database. ("ares", "ares_emails", and "queue")

I have dropped each table and refreshed the page and get the same result. (3 times)

I also did the following:
Check that regular apostrophes are wrapping the database credentials in /includes/config.php. The text or code editor you used to edit the /includes/config.php file may have converted the apostrophes to non-standard apostrophes causing this issue.

I do not think it would be the apostrophes because of the creation of the three tables in MySQL.

Thank you,

  • Try deleting all tables and try again? I'm using Linode CentOS and it's working perfectly.

  • Tried again, even created new database. I'm using ubuntu 13.10 as recommended in another article. Will rebuild using CentOS. Thanks

  • UPDATE: I have CentOS 6 running and was able to get the config page. However now the friendly url redirects are not resolving correctly to the .php file extension. This may be an .htaccess thing. Thank you!

  • oh, each page will load if I put .php at the end of the url.

  • Please see 'Getting 404 error at login page after installation' in http://sendy.co/troubleshooting

  • Issue resolved using: "If you setup your own server, ensure AllowOverride All is set in your Apache's httpd.conf instead of AllowOverride None so that Sendy's .htaccess file is not ignored by your server."

    Thank you!
    Next step Cron Jobs! Woot!
