Blank pages with users.php & usersettings.php
Installation went fine. Everything works (that I can tell) except for users.php & usersettings.php. I've searched the forums & FAQ section. I've tried tried changing the .htaccess, making sure that the forums are spelled right, made sure there was no whitespace in the config.php & lib-commons.php.
I've been trying to get it to work for the last few days, but it won't budge. Example of what happens is:
1) Click on new user
2) Page loads in okay. URL shows http://domain.com/users.php?mode=new
3) Click on submit
4) Page is blank. URL shows http://domain.com/users.php
Same behaviour when trying to change my password in usersettings.php. I ended up changing it via mysql.

The only time I ever had issues with blank pages is ...
a) I had the url for my site wrong in the config.php file
b) The rights on the file were too open. I think that is when I have problems (can't recall if I get an error page).
Make sure the url is correct in the config.php and that the rights on the files in question are 644 (I believe that is the correct value).

Thanks for the quick reply...
a) I had the url for my site wrong in the config.php file
I thought maybe I might have, so I purposely put in a bad value (added a character to it). It made the PHP display an error. I put it back & the blank page was back.
b) The rights on the file were too open. I think that is when I have problems (can't recall if I get an error page).
Just to be on the safe side, I shell'd in & did a chmod 644 on the config.php. It still does not work.
Thanks for the suggestions...
I know it's something small...trivial... and when I do find it, I'll be like this guy

Another thing... does the above post look "odd" to anyone? The "quote" is weird... hmm... I double checked it too... hmm...

I meant the chmod 644 on the user.php and usersettings.php files. Though I just tested on my site, it didn't come up blank, it came up with an error page when I changed from 644.

They were already 644... but I humored the idea, so I did a chmod on them anyway... still doesn't work...
