CMS Made Simple Forums

same problem here.
At random blank pages since upgrade from 1.4.2 to 1.6.6.
Very annoying!
Does anyone the cause and solution???

Hey wbroekman and bwhendrickx,

Did you read this topic yet? http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 068.0.html
Perhaps you find some info there to work with...

Grtz. Rolf

I'm getting the exactly same problem - Any solutions yet?

Thanks

I don't know - I wish I did know - but as far as I know it's a Safari Cache problem.
One Safari side solution is to lock the cache folder. but that doesn't solve our problem.
It doesn't happen on all my sites/pages either - perplexed.
If anyone solves this - please engrave it in stone it in big letters.

Hi,

I wonder if your Safari 4.x blank page problem might be related to this Webkit bug...

Edit: fixed typo

That seems to be it Fred -
would be great if somebody could fix it - certainly seems like it's a Safari problem
having done a fair bit of "Googling" on the subject it's apparently annoying quite a number of Web-Monkeys.
I first noticed it with the first Safari 4 - but it doesn't affect all my sites - my main site with lots of page content and external banners and stuff is okay, it's the smaller lightweight sites that are critical.
Maybe Santa will fix it for us.

Hypothetically, this problem could go beyond Safari, since the WebKit engine is also used by other browsers.

I'm not sure of its accuracy, but there is a Wikipedia page that lists WebKit-based browsers:

It might be interesting to try one of the other WebKit browsers, say Google Chrome, to see if it too has the problem.

Hi all,

Calguy discovered that similar problems were the result of bugs in the servers PHP.
Could you please check your PHP version?
Version 5.2.10 or 5.2.11 should solve the problem. (not 5.3!)

Regards, Rolf

Upgrading to 5.2.10 or 5.2.11 might solve the problem then

This may support my findings as well.. I had this same issue on a few sites ... I replaced the stylesheet tag for a static stylesheet and that fixed the issue.. I left off where it was the php header that was outputted, was not liked by all WebKit engine browsers... I was able to reproduce this on chrome to ipods... if updating the php is the fixed then the root cause is truly the header code ... Would really love to find out for sure since I can't reproduce this error anymore (due to using static files) and don't want to have clients come back saying this again

Cheers

I just made static css page for the site and it worked like a charm.

I just made a static CSS page and it worked like a charm too. But I upgraded to 1.8.1 CMS and now the issue seems to be back...

Did you clear the cache after upgrade?

Last thing you do in the upgrade process is clear the cache. But I redid it, hoping that was it. It wasn't. I'm also clearing the cache in Safari constantly... that isn't it either. 

OK sorry for so many posts and thanks for getting back to me so qucik. It turns out that a complete idiot was running the keyboard for a while... someone must have hacked into my body and taken over. I feel such like a microsoft product.

I got rid of the stylessheet tag in the template and copied all the styles that I use into a styles file on the server and put in a proper <link rel="stylesheet" tag and it now works in Safari and Firefox...
