Help: Installing on Apache on Windows XP
I need help.
I am running Apache 2.0.48 on Windows XP Pro with PHP 4.3.3, ImageMagick 5.5.7. I downloaded PHPWCMS version 1.1-RC2 . I extracted the contents to my htdocs directory. I created the MySQL database and user. I ran the setup files. Everything went well.
However, when I try to log in, or even view the index.php under the root directory, I get a black page. No error messages are given.
Furthermore, if I enable the page creation option, the thing that lets one know how long it took to create a page, that is the only thing that will be displayed.
Can someone help me out?

I think you may need to add a page layout and a template as default.
Also check your conf.inc.php file to see if this line
is set to 0
Also check your conf.inc.php file to see if this line
Code: Select all
// debugging timer
$phpwcms["timer"] = 0; //is for displaying a how long it needs to create

How do I make a template/page layout?
The page parses. I can see the page title on the window of index.php. However, there is no content. Even when I go to login.php I cannot see anything.
Source of login.php after being parsed:

Did you download the "phpwcms_1.1-RC2-2004-02-01.zip" or "phpwcms_1.1-RC2-2004-02-01.tar.gz"?
If you have downloaded "phpwcms_1.1-RC2-2004-02-01.tar.gz" and unzipped it on your windows machine, you may have some of the empty folders dropped during unzip process.
I would suggest to download "phpwcms_1.1-RC2-2004-02-01.zip" and then delete all the files and folders you created for phpwcms on your server and start over fresh.

I think your Session handling in php.ini is not set well.
Check these lines:
Check these lines:
Code: Select all
[Session]
; Handler used to store/retrieve data.
session.save_handler = files
; Argument passed to save_handler. In the case of files, this is the path
; where data files are stored. Note: Windows users have to change this
; variable in order to use PHP's session functions.
session.save_path = C:\PROGRAMME\AppServ\php\session
