problem with textpattern installation in new server php 5

mlarino · 2008-10-06 18:29:02

Hi,
Is my first time with this new hosting, and they have php5 installed.
My old one had no problem at all installing and usign textpattern, but with this one everything is a mess…

I cant install plugins, the frontpage links take me to a blank screen saying the content is not there. etc……
What can the problem be?
how can I figure out what to do?

I need to finish a website using textpattern in 15 days and need help!!
Thanks!

Can you get to the diagnostics page in the Admin?

This is what I get there,
If you need I can make an English install.

You were able to install rvm_maintenance ;) Does it make a difference if you de-activate it?

mlarino · 2008-10-06 20:29:56

Seems like I can install small plugins, but not long ones…

Here is a tip from Ruud (from this post). Maybe it helps.

Solving plugin installation problems

If you get a blank screen or a HTTP 304 or a HTTP 404 error during plugin installation, put the following in a .htaccess file in your textpattern folder (not your website root!) during the install and remove it afterwards:

<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

mlarino · 2008-10-06 20:58:06

There is no blank page during instalation
I will make a new install in english in a different folder and let you see what happens in the front side, with the “about” section and stuff, thats when i get a blank page.

During plugin install (long plugins) I just get a notice that the code of the plugin is empty or bad writen

If you get an error message during plugin installation that reads “malformed or empty plugin code”, you either didn’t copy/paste the entire plugin code (try again!) or your webhost has restricted the maximum amount of text that can be transmitted using a form. In the latter case, try installing the compressed version of the plugin

I don’t know if compressed versions are available for every plugin you need, but most of the time, if the plugin is still maintained, plugin authors also offer a compressed version.

As for the blank page, does this FAQ help?

Thanks for your help! my hosting fixed some things and now a lot of my issues are gone.
But I still have the plugin problem.
This is the plugin I need to install,
http://www.cnowak.de/works/txp_plugins/cnk_soccer_v1.0.2.txt
but it says: “Badly formed or empty plugin code” everytime I hit Upload.
Any clues what that can be?

I see you already asked for help in the plugin thread. Hope the plugin author or your host will be able to solve it!

I hope too,
thanks
