Frameworks like CakePHP require additional files and database tables to be created by the programmer, before anything will show up on the screen. There are either omitted files or missing tables (or missing table rows). Paul -- Paul M. Foster -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The "favicon.ico" file only contains the small icon you see to the left of the URL in your browser. If it doesn't exist, the browser will just use a generic one. I'd suggest proceeding as follows: o Within the browser window displaying the page you are having problems with, check the source code. This way you can see what the server returns to the client (the browser, in this case) and rule out possible issues caused by the browser itself while rendering a page. o Continue searching the web server logs for other more meaningful errors. Are you sure you don't see any other errors in the browser window? Also, are you sure you simulated the very same environment from the original system? Same directories, databases, etc.? I'm not familiar with CakePHP, but perhaps you need to set certain config options to get it to work. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Is the app perhaps using a database that you've not set up? Are the permissions on the files exactly as they are on the remote app? Is the server set up in the same general way? Are there any missing web server modules that the app requires that you need to add in locally? There are a lot of questions here, but in order for anyone to help, we need a bit more information. A blank screen could be caused by any number of issues. What other messages are in your error log?

Hi all, The site I have download was developed using cake php. Now when trying to access the website it is showing a blank page. As Sudheer suggested I went to error log and noted down the errors there, which are as follows: [Thu Aug 20 14:10:16 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: F:/Rabin/xampp/htdocs/favicon.ico I think there is no file called favicon.ico but how to create this file. Is this something related to cakephp configuration.
