i have setup raven nuke before and this time it is not working.
i followed all the howtoinstall files, creating the database and the username and giving permissions. i also edited the config.php file for the proper settings.
when i run the INSTALLATION/installSQL.php file, i get a blank white screen.. and cannot build the tables, etc..
anyone have any ideas? thanks in advance. |

Set config error to true in config.php and error reporting to:
$error_reporting = E_ALL; |

Well, there is always a reason for a blank screen. Upload your INSTALLATION folder again and maybe use the search function because there is a sticky in the forums about blank screen on install. |

i have used multiple installation folders and get the same error.
I cannot find any posts regarding this issue or sticky. there was one similar problem but it did not pertain to my issue.
the only other thing I can say about my issue is that it is not in the root of the domain name. im installing the site in a sub-directory.. would that change anything?
i was able to install php-nuke 8.0 in a subdirectory, but I would rather use ravens nuke..
am i the only one getting this error? |

Set the file attributes of the following 4 files to 644 as you can see in my pictures below. Maybe this will help.

Unfortunately, this seems fine and won't help us much. I was hoping for something obvious there. I suspect the "working version of raven nuke on the same site" means that it is in the root or above the new one that you are trying to install?
We really need to find out what the error is behind that white page. Try the following:
1. At the top of installSQL.php, swap these two lines:
session_start();
$nukeConfigFile = '../config.php';
2. Then, in config.php, please make sure $display_errors = true;
Lets see if it gives us an error message now. |

You would have to take the rn_core.sql and replace all the
$prefix.`
with:
`nuke
If "nuke" isn't your prefix, then replace that with your prefix, but pay close attention to where the backtick is on that. |

Well, I am definitely sorry to hear that. Normally the installation goes very smoothly and we don't see these troubles. Must be something in the way your set up. It is a shame to switch over to straight PHP-Nuke. So many security holes and bugs. At lease for security purposes, do make sure you keep up on the Nuke Patches found at Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login!, otherwise, you basically just opened up all the doors and put a sign out front saying "come hack me". |

I have experienced the blank screen a few times after installation. 50% of the time it was simply due to the /themes/fisubice folder not being transferred fully. Retry uploading just that 1 folder. |

Hmmm, if running the installsql file shows a blank screen then try using another browser. Just a thought ...
Cheers |
