Installation step 7: Index.php is totally blank!?

Help with getting the CMS CORE package up and running. This does not include 3rd party modules, PHP scripts, anything downloaded via module manager or from any external source.

Installation step 7: Index.php is totally blank!?

Post by weaselweasel »

Hello there.
I'm trying to install CMSMS on my website (quick install via FTP).

After having uploaded all the files and CHMOD 'em, I supposed to open index.php
When I do this, the page is completely blank! (see: http://www.friekout.nl/cmsms/index.php )

What am I doing wrong? I did follow all the instructions from the User Handbook.

Thanks in advance,
Jeroen

I've tried cmsms/install/index.php, but I get the message saying "This page does not exist". (which seems normal to me, since there is no map called 'Install')

What do you mean by phpinfo?

I did. It brought me to this forum. ;)

Seriously: I mostly try to figure things out myself, but I'm kinda stuck here.
It's pretty weird. I've managed other installations (like Wordpress for instance), and never had any problems.

OK, so here is my PHPinfo:

http://www.friekout.nl/cmsms/info.php

Is there something unusual about it?

So I guess this is a very unusual problem.
Too bad. I'll try an alternative. Thanks anyway.

Set
error_reporting to E_ALL
display_errors to On
and pay attention to safe_mode

I figured out the problem!
The TAR/GZ-file on the download-page is incomplete!!! The folders Lib, Install, Doc and Plugins are missing! This is what caused all the trouble.
I just downloaded the ZIP, and noticed it does have all the right files. :)

Looks like a big BUG. ;)
However: thanks for all the replies you guys!
