Installing an old application to a new server - El Forum - 09-05-2012

Hi all,
As part of a major work for uni, I have been tasked to improve on an application done with Code Igniter. So as not to potentially break their server, I am replicating their server on one of the Uni's.
I have a lamp stack set up, i have my database set up, and I am trying to install Code Igniter. I followed the instructions in the user guide for 2.0.2, as that is what I am using, but when I click my html link to the application, it just goes to a blank page. However, it works on the client's server.
Anyone know why this might be happening and how to fix it? Running ubuntu 10 I think.

Search around for "PHP blank page". Likely there is a fatal error, but error displaying is turned off.

I turned on logging in config and checked the application log path but nothing is getting logged

Check your php.ini and set it to dump all errors, at least during testing,
Code:
error_reporting(E_ALL);Installing an old application to a new server - El Forum - 09-06-2012

If you have command line PHP installed do a lint check (php -l filename.php (small L)) on that file and it will tell you what's going on with it. Probably some parenthesis missing or something like that.

Also, check your Apache error log.

@notDoir, it is copy paste files from the other server, where it works, so that isnt it. But I checked anyway, and nothing. Where do I find the logs for apache2? I couldnt seem to find log folder under apache2.
As for setting error_reporting = E_ALL, still no errors being reported in the codeIgniter Logs, no file even there, and again, I am not sure where the php5 log files are kept.
On a side note, why, when I unzip CodeIgniter_2.0.2.zip, am I getting CodeIgniter_2.1.2 files?

Under linux, the apache logs are in /var/log/apache2/error.log
You may see archived error logs also "error1.log", "error2.log. You want the current one "error.log"
If you are on Windows, I don't know where the apache logs are saved.
[Edit] my zip file is named Codeigniter_2.1.2.zip downloaded from github

The one before that was Codeigniter_2.0.3.zip
Both contain exactly what they claim to be. I don't have a 2.0.2 version.[/quote]
php logs:

Well I downloaded 2.0.2 using wget, as that was what was installed on the previous system. And when I unzipped it it has 2.1.2 files in it. Go Figure...
The only errors in my apache log are lack of a FQDN and missing favico icons
