    Blank Page

    Did a clean install, when I click "Site Home Page" it takes me to a blank page.

    Find your domain name at HugeDomains. Start using this domain right away.


    I didn't change anything in the Site Name / URL / Contact Details page.

    Did I miss something?

    you should access your forum with URL : http://www.section8gaming.com/vb5_test/
    also have you uploaded the included .htaccess file to the installation root directory?

      When I click the link you provided, the page doesn't display properly. Should I edit the Forum URL in my settings?

      If I add that to my root directory, how will that affect my 4.2 live site?

          I noticed that I had that file there. I uploaded it anyway.

          Now when I go to: http://www.section8gaming.com/vb5_test

          It doesn't load right. My admincp is not looking good either.

          Not sure what I am doing wrong....

            Please post a copy of your root config.php file. Also, the .htaccess file is in your vB5 root directory?

                $config['baseurl'] isn't correct, it must be http://www.section8gaming.com/vb5_test.

                          The URL in your AdminCP should be http://www.section8gaming.com/vb5_test/core .

                              You should not have core in the browser URL, except when upgrading.
