1. Why do you think you need another posting.php and common.php? If you haven't managed to edit the files, there should be no difference to the standard xs 058 release files. If you want common.php to have ini_set("memory_limit","12M"); as
Xusqui suggests, then just open common.php, and insert the line. For this, it doesn't really matter if you put it before or after
Quote:
if ( !defined('IN_PHPBB') )
{
die("Hacking attempt");
}
, so to make it easier, just put it straight after <?php, for example:
<?php
ini_set("memory_limit","12M");
Upload it and replace the existing common.php. Its such a simple change, that don't even bother to do a backup the existing file. If you want to go back a step, you only need to delete this simple line.
If you have made changes, and you've lost track / don't have backups, then just download a fresh copy of XS and start again. You could replace the current directory on your server with a fresh copy. To do that, you must remove /install and /contrib (as per install) and copy across your config.php. Rename the curent XS directory (e.g. apend its name with _old), and rename new directory to whatever the current directory is. Having said that, it looks like you've installed it all in your public_html directory, which makes it more difficult
In which case, rename current config.php to something else (e.g. config_old.php) delete everything else related to XS, then unzip a fresh install. Delete the new config.php (and also /install and contrib directories), and rename config_old.php back to config.php. AND DON'T FORGET TO CHMOD as per the install notes in the docs directory! This at least should guarantee you are starting on a clean install, although doesn't mean the problem is solved - it could be an issue with your SQL configuration. However, before reinstalling a fresh copy, I would take the next step.
2. Using an ethernet packet sniffer, I see that gzip is enabled - this could be obscurring any error mesages, and resulting in the blank page. Go into
ACP>>Board (General Configuration) 13th item down is "enable gzip". Ensure it is set to no. It could even be an error inserting into SQL, but because the page is gzipped, the error doesn't display (I've found error codes generated from the php server are not always gzip compressed, and because the browser is told to expect a compressed stream of data, when it receives uncompressed data and tries to decompress it, the result is nothing. This is because the gzip function is called within XS, to compress data generated from XS, whilst the error codes are generated outside of XS, and thus occur before/outside the compression). If doing this enables you to see an error message, tell us what it says here.
3.I am not convinced that chmodding of the files are the main problem here, because normally you wouldn't be able to view the main index page, let alone this error (/cache being the critical directory). Hopefully if you follow 2, the problem should be clearer.

Are you saying your English is dirty, or that the English langauge is dirty?
If you don't want to use English, try writing everything in Francais. I doubt though, that anyone else here understands. Thats just the luck of the draw, get over it.
