blank page after migration

Post by jkvt » Fri Sep 05, 2014 5:42 pm

After migrating to a new host so I could test and update I am only getting blank page?

Has anyone run into this before?
Thoughts?

Thanks,
jkvt

A complete blank page is an indication of a PHP error while PHP error reporting is switched off.

To see the real error, you've to switch it on using one of these methods:

In the back-end go to: System > Global Configuration > [server] tab >
change "Error Reporting" from "System Default" to "Maximum"

Or you can add the following code to .htaccess to override the server settings and show any PHP errors:

Code: Select all

php_flag display_errors on
php_value error_reporting -1

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '';' (T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING), expecting ',' or ';' in /home/valley/public_html/configuration.php on line 14

Not sure it is progress. But I know have some information showing up. But nothing still a blank page when trying to log into /administrator.

Also when I click on a menu(unformatted) item in what does show up on the front end I get
"The requested URL /‘0’/index.php/news/letters was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
"
