Getting a blank screen in admin

Hi everyone,

 

I just changed web hosts, and now when I go to my oscommerce admin url, I am just getting a blank page. I have changed the following configuration files to include the new mySQL server, shared SSL URL, username, database, and password on all of them, but I am still getting a blank page. Can anyone tell me what I am missing here?

 

 

root/admin/includes/configure.php
root/admin/includes/local/configure.php 
root/includes/configure.php
root/includes/local/configure.php

 

I would appreciate any suggestions, I have run out of ideas of what it could be...?

I have a very very similar problem. Only instead of changing web hosts, my hard drive failed and I've restored to a new one. However, I get just a blank page too. The new drive was installed with the latest Ensim software (v10 I think) and whatever else that entails. The database appears to have restored just fine. The store itself appears to be working fine, we've even gotten some orders. We just can't get into the Admin area to see the orders in a nice way. Any help would be appreciated!

I figured out my problem. Maybe this will help you too. (I also posted this in another thread.)

 

A) I checked the log files and found this error: "PHP Fatal error: Cannot re-assign $this in /home/virtual/site2/fst/var/www/html/admin/includes/classes/upload.php on line 31"

 

B) So I checked out what line 31 was ("$this = null;") and commented it out. Now everything works fine. However, if someone knows that this will cause a problem later, please let me know.

James,

Php, Html, and javascript and so on are all interpretive languages so what does this mean...if

you make an syntax error or leave out a ', ),} and so on then you will get a blank page because these are error...so go back and check the changes that you made and see if you

have left off ',),} and so on...These comands come in pairs...If you are unsure look at the back up you made and compare the two...

also if your new host has gone to the newer release of php you may experience the same results...

I hope this helps,

Roman
