today i just upgrade my xampp from 1.4 to 1.5

after the upgrade i put in my database tables and set the document root in the apache config i went to check my integramod forum, and everything was just blank. I thought it maybe the password config file, i check it and it was fine. then i purposely changed it to wrong settings and the pages are still blank. so that means it doesn't even get to the mysql step. i checked the other files (login.php, admin/ ) and they were ALL BLANK. Obviously php and mysql itself is still working as phpmyadmin and the xampp settings page are working. So i just uninstalled 1.5 and put back 1.4 . No luck, still blank. I tried another php app with mysql and it works fine. So it gotta be something in phpbb that just freaks apache (or php or mysql) out. it was working perfectly before.

then i tried uninstall, restart, and clear reinstall 1.4. Still no luck.
tried install 1.5 on another account. No luck, same thing happens.
uninstalled that

oh yes during the first run of xampp 1.5 i was trying out ssl (i never knew it was there before so i was curious :wink: ) and after a page or two the comp froze up on me. crtl-alt-delete waited like 5 min. and then it shows cpu 100%, apache.exe 98% ) tried to end that process it won't work. Even the mouse was slow. So i had to do a forced shutdown by holding the power button on my comp. Maybe this has something to do with it, i dunno.

can any one PLEASE help?

thank you VERY MUCH

(today's like the only day i got some free time, and i planned to get some good work done, and this thing took up the whole night now... i am so ^&$^%$*^ by this stupid xampp... )

update:

to make sure that it's not my scripts and the problem's my server, i moved a fresh copy of integramod into my www folder. Same thing. It IS my server.

here's apaches error.log, tell me if there's something else i can provide.

Turn error reporting on so you have some information to work with rather than blank pages.

how? error reporting was on before, and there were no code changes and no problems before...

nvm, i fixed it, it's me that's stupid and not thinking the whole time... :oops:

i had it on php4 before, new installs default to php5 and that's why pages are blank. Incompatible and php's not saying anything...

has nothing to do with ssl xampp 1.5 or the crash...

again sorry for wasting ur time, wanna beat myself with a sludgehammer
