Blank page during install

Posted by rwa66 at 14:42 on 27th Oct 2009
Hello,

I just tried to install shutter on my server (http://photos.lammertsma.nl/).
I renamed config.bak to config.php, gave "everyone" modify rights on this file and photos folder.
Unfortunately a blank page is being served, the page has a PHP source though.
I even have given the user "everyone" modify rights on the whole directory, to no avail.
PHP is being parsed correctly as you can see on http://photos.lammertsma.nl/phpinfo.php

Do you have any idea what the proble could be and how to get this script working?

Thanks for your time!

Do you have permissions to use .htaccess (distributed configuration files)?

Best way to check is to edit .htaccess to a string of random characters (to try and break it) and see if this changes the blank page to an error. If not, then there's your problem :)

I finally managed to get Shutter working.
I think the fault was that XAMPP (appache, PHP, MySQL, etc) was installed in the Program Files folder instead of the prefered root.
