    White page problems after installation

    I experience strange issues after install:

    www.mydomain.com/forum and www.mydomain.com/blogs return 404 Not Found
    www.mydomain.com/admincp returns blank page

    HOWEVER when I try to access admincp at:

    www.mydomain.com/core/admincp the logi page displays (but then, after login, it redirects back to www.mydomain.com/admincp, so it is not really usable). This trick does not work for forums or blogs.

    My /config.php:

    PHP Code:
    $config['baseurl'] = 'http://www.mydomain.com';
    $config['baseurl_core'] = 'http://www.mydomain.com/core';
    $config['baseurl_login'] = $config['baseurl'];
    $config['core_path'] = '/var/www/core'
    The rest was left unchanged.

    Any help would be appreciated.

      Tried most of the things listed there, but still does not work. Mind that I get blank page only when trying to access admincp. In all other instances I get 404 Not found.

        From the config.php file, you have set your path to: http://www.mydomain.com

        This means, http://www.mydomain.com will return the index page of your site. To access the AdminCP, you would go to: http://www.mydomain.com/admincp. If you get a white page here, it is a known error with some users and can be fixed by adding index.php to the end of the site url like so: http://www.mydomain.com/admincp/index.php

        Hope that helps.

          i have the same issue and after reading the manual for white or blank pages found that i did not upload using ASCII

          1. You did not upload the vB files correctly. Reupload the vB non-image files and make sure you upload these in ASCII format and that you overwrite the ones on the server. Make sure you upload the Admin CP files to the admincp directory specified in your config.php file. Then, if you can access the Admin CP, run 'Suspect File Versions' in Diagnostics to make sure you have all the original files for your version:
          hope its my only issue, once i have uploaded the files correctly do i need to run the install again ?

          - - - Updated - - -

          so i have re uploaded all of the files and still getting the white/blank pages on both admincp and home



          any help or suggestions please

            Did you upload the files for mod_rewrite in forum root?

                Those are the .htaccess and/or config.web files

                  I have a similar problem and can't login to Admincp. As it turns out there is no index.php in the Folder. I checked all files local on my HD after unzipping. In the Admincp folder is no index.php file?! Any suggestions?

                          There should be no index.php file in that folder. You need to have URL Rewrites enabled on the server and use the included files either .htaccess or web.config depending on your server. Apache and IIS are supported.

                          White pages indicate a PHP error and you would need to look at your PHP error log to see what the error is.

                            forgive me i am not a software genius and most of you are saying i dont understand, i get by on readme's and abusing your guys search engine, i dont understand how the URL rewriter works, or how i should use it? i uploaded from FTP and using filezilla and under transfer type selected ASCII, is that correct ?

                              Check the URLs and Server Paths in the front end config.php file as the Class not found error can result from an incorrect one there.
