New 2010.1 install, phpMyAdmin/phpinfo work fine, blank index
  • JLoftusJLoftus January 2010

    New to SimpleInvoices, pardon any ignorances, did search quite a bit, but unable to get a new instance fully up...

    Win2003, WAMP 2.0, followed all the install steps and tests, all worked fine, including:
    -- PDF test (had to tweak error_reporting)
    -- http://localhost works fine
    -- phpMyAdmin works fine
    -- created simple_invoices database fine
    -- executed Full_Simple_Invoices.sql fine
    -- phpInfo runs fine

    However, when I run http://localhost/simplinvoices or even http://localhost/simpleinvoices/index.php, the page is blank.

    I'm stuck... help!

    Hey JLoftus

    have seen blank page issue on a few linux servers - but tried to fix them with the 201.0 release

    can you check your php and apache logs for errors - normally these will tell you what the problem is

    let me know what you find

    Cheers

    Thanks for the quick response!

    the apache logs all have 2008 dates, with skeletal data.

    I don't see any logs in the php folder tree, there is a logs folder under c:\wamp, with the following:

    apache_error.log:
    .
    .
    .

    (I entered the fubar.php address just to trigger a 404, shown in the last line above... the 301 and subsequent 200 look fine, eh?)


    Thoughts?

  • justinjustin January 2010

    sorry nothing helpfully in those logs :( normally there is something useful in the apache error log

    anyone else seen or know about this issue ?

    cheers

    only other thing i can think is to check the file & folder permissions of the Simple Invoices files

    can you check then against other PHP apps/scripts you have on your webserver ?

    cheers

    I_USR_xxx has recursive read/write to C:\wamp\www\simpleinvoices

    As far as other php files, for example http://localhost/simpleinvoices/phpinfo.php works fine, as does http://localhost/index.php

    Doing a "View Source" on the blank page yields little (as pasted below) so could the php code be bombing out early on? I saw a check for "BROWSE" in the index.php, can you think of anything like this?

  • justinjustin January 2010

    in config/config.ini can you change set error_reporting to E_ALL and reload the index page

    let us know if any errors display on screen

    cheers

    Bingo!
    Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND' in C:\wamp\www\simpleinvoices\include\class\db.php on line 53

    Now what do do about this?

  • justinjustin January 2010

    ah..

    edit config/config.ini and set database.utf8 = false and retry

    cheers

    I found this post because I have a similar issue... Although I have not yet been able to actually go through any of the two provided installers (install and install_max), I do too get a blank page when I load the index
    I have error_reporting set to E_ALL but the page doesn't show anything
    I tried setting utf8 setting to false but the page is still all blank
    of course this could be due to the fact that I haven't gone through the installer yet, but I thought I'd get at least SOMETHING, an indication of some kind, since the database exists and is in place with the demo data

    I looked at my error log and I see this:

    [Wed Jan 20 11:43:42 2010] [warn] mod_fcgid: stderr: thrown in /home/marcurse/public_html/simpleinvoices/library/Zend/Config/Ini.php on line 184

    [Wed Jan 20 11:43:42 2010] [warn] mod_fcgid: stderr: ' in /home/marcurse/public_html/simpleinvoices/library/Zend/Config/Ini.php:184


    Does this mean anything to anyone?

  • BobbySBobbyS March 2010

    I have the same problem but after I followed all that was instructed here it still isn't working. Once I input http://localhost/simpleinvoices its says


    Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND' in C:\wamp\www\simpleinvoices\include\class\db.php on line 53

    What do I do?

  • marcnycmarcnyc March 2010

    I don't know what your issue specifically is, but I solved my issue my removing punctuation from my database password
