Well, I have tried uploading the files from my PHP-Nuke folder to my webhost (http://www.atbhost.com). I have followed the instructions exactly, but have been unable to launch the install script. All it shows is a blank page. How should I go about this?


Another, somewhat related question: how do I change the default page? The default page is index.html, but PHP-Nuke is, obviously, index.php .


Please help!

Sounds like your web host has not enabled PHP yet, when PHP is installed index.php will automatically work.

The blank page thing also suggests either a configuration issue or PHP not installed. I would email your web host and ask about this

You can try see if php is installed by going in to notepad and making a simple file. Call it test.php for example and put in the following code...

Code: Select all

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Hope this helps!

I agree with it being something with PHP.

Also, be sure you remove any other files in the root install directory of the PHP-Nuke install, such as: default.htm, default.php, index.html, default.html, index.htm

Index.php will take over the reigns once all these files are removed.

Hope that helps.
