    Blank forum home page unless I append "/index.php" to my URL?

    Hello again,

    I've just completed the upgrade, going from 3.0.6 to 3.5.3; for the most part things went smoothly and I received no errors throughout, I'm able to access the admincp and everything else, but: now I find that typing in my forum's URL no longer works unless I append "/index.php" to it. If I don't do so, all I get is a blank screen and I'm not sure why - does anybody have any suggestions I might try?

    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

    you could also add index.php to your webserver list of files to automatically look for after the url - defaults are index.htm / index.html.
    updating one of these days!
