Blank White Page (see post for error log)

[eluser]pmhart[/eluser]
Hello -

I am getting a blank white page for a homepage in CI. Here is what I gathered from the error log:

ERROR - 2009-10-05 18:59:35 --> Severity: Notice --> Undefined index: timer ...\tools\ipbwi\ipbsdk_class.inc.php 247
ERROR - 2009-10-05 18:59:35 --> Severity: Notice --> Undefined index: debug ...\tools\ipbwi\ipbsdk_class.inc.php 247
ERROR - 2009-10-05 18:59:35 --&gt; Severity: Warning --&gt; require_once(...\sources/action_public/xmlout.php) [<a href='function.require-once'>function.require-once</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory ...\tools\ipbwi\ipbsdk_class.inc.php 304


These are notices / warnings. Nothing that should cause nothing to be displayed to the page!

I am using xampp 1.7.1, a fresh install ...

If i point to an image, it shows up in the browser. It is driving me nuts!

Your require_once statement is causing the problem. It is doing what you asked it to do by refusing to continue if a file is missing.
&nbsp;
It looks as though you have an incorrect path or a missing file.

Code:

require_once(...\sources/action_public/xmlout.php)

[function.require-once]:
     failed to open stream:
     No such file or directory ...\tools\ipbwi\ipbsdk_class.inc.php 304

&nbsp;
Correct and move on to your next error
&nbsp;

Code:

// These statements should help in creating a relative path to your missing file:  

   echo '<br />' .BASEPATH;   // set in index.php
   echo '<br />' .APPPATH;    // set in index.php
   echo '<br />' .site_url(); // requires: $this->load->helper('url');
   echo '<br />' .base_url(); // requires: $this->load->helper('url');
   echo '<br />' .getcwd();   // PHP function
   echo '<br />' .__FILE__;   // PHP variable

Changing require_once to include_once will give you a visible error, but won't fix your error

As John_Betong notes, its a path error - did you mean to put 3 dots? Just have to play around until you find the right directory.

Ah so fixing that error works! I was thrown off because it was a tool for a forum software and it was pointing to the main directory, which could contain the files, but is supposed to point at the forum directory.

Anyone with the blank white page, turn your log var to 4 and fix the errors it should work!
