Hi all,
I tried (and failed - total newbie at mysql, php and apache) for 3 or 4 weeks to set up Mambo locally on Mac OS 10.3.3 (I'm persistent if nothing else!) and had just about no hair left then I did a clean install of my system and (I couldn't believe my eyes) the automated installation went without a hitch! I must've learned something in those harrowing weeks after all.
So I logged in as Admin and got a blank page. Tried the site itself, also a blank page. Well in my previous searches for answers I'd seen this problem so searched again but alas none of the fixes worked for me.
I did figure out a solution though and wanted to post it here so others in the same boat can try it:
In the php.ini file (on my system the path is /usr/local/php/lib/php.ini) go to the safe mode section and change this line:
Code:
safe_mode_allowed_env_vars = PHP_
to:
Code:
safe_mode_allowed_env_vars = "PHP_","mos_"
Interesting (not to mention wacky) that this fixed the problem because I have safe mode set to "OFF" (the default setting) however it did make a difference. It was the only thing I changed.
Hope this can help someone else.
