blank screen of death after upgrade

[zac]

Hi!

I've upgraded from 1.2.5 to 1.3.1.1, offline in XAMPP. After everything was working like it should, I copied everything online, database and files. Edited settings.inc.php, and changed file permissions according to install-wiki. I can access backend, generated new .htaccess and robots.txt.

But I do not see the frontend, only a white blank screen. No error message, even when turned on. Deleted files in folder smarty/compile. No changes.
I can access also the frontend by entering an exact url like domain/shop/category or when calling index.php. But as soon I go back to home, the white screen appears again.

Any ideas what's causing the problem and how to solve it?

Thanks

Hello,

I had the same thing but i checked my apache error log and could see my template and my permission folders did not have the correct permissions set.

Can you check your error log? for example in centos or redhat the file is /var/log/httpd/error_log

If you can find the error you are half way to solving that blank scree problem

Cheers
