Blank Install

[jrbamberg]

I've read all the documents about installing and the different error messages. But I don't any error messages. I have uploaded the files and folder required and I have changed the pixelpost.php file with correct information then I go to my page to install which is: http://graphixprojects.com/pixelpost/admin/install.php.

But, it comes up blank. Any ideas why it would be blank. If it wasn't uploaded correctly wouldn't I get an error page or a database error message? Why just nothing? :mad:

That is odd. Do you have any php apps running on your site? If you have access to them, check your error logs for any details that might explain what's happening.

There is phpFormGen I think is the only one. I have tried other photoblog software like photostand, which installed just fine. As far as error logs, I don't know where those would be at.

If you don't have access to your log files either through ssh, ftp, or an admin panel, then you may need to contact your webhost to get access to the error logs.

Did you upload any extra addons, or just the core PixelPost files? Did everything get uploaded?

None of the pixelpost files seem to work. Are you sure you're able to run php scripts with your webhost?

I only uploaded the pixelpost files, no extra addons. Yes, I uploaded the full contents. Nothing less. When I delete them all from my server, I get an error page, reupload and I get blank page.

I have uploaded and run several php files. This is so far the only one that doesnt work. I use www.graphixprojects.com/phpinfo.php as a test.

Yeah, I noticed the "Try Another Day"! message when checking files at random that the files were there, but for some reason the index and install scripts aren't executing properly.

Have you had a chance to contact your host about the error logs?

No I haven't, but I decided to delete all files from server in dreamweaver and reupload a fresh copy from the website. While uploading this the log I copied: So something could have happened with the first time I uploaded as well. Missing files and folders. Not sure why they didnt get uploaded::

Your site is executing the PP files at the moment, but the error messages indicate you need to change the settings in includes/pixelpost.php to your server settings.

Thanks for all your help. It seems that after I deleted all files on the remote server as well as locally, downloaded a fresh copy from the website and reuploaded all files, things work now. Thanks again.

Excellent! It looks like you're off to a good start too.
