Hi
I build a simple test site. (PhpMaker 2021) First using Postgresql and then Mysql. Both times i got blank page result. My servers work fine, i checked all of them (I´M USING IT ON OTHERS PROJECTS). But i still recieving a blank page as result.
I´m working with:-Appserv 9.3 (Apache 2.4.41. PHP 7.3.10. MySQL 8.0.17 .)
-Postgresql 9.6
-Firefox and Chrome (both updated)
-Last Composer and Nodejs (as recommended here)When i generate site there are no errors on list.

You may have PHP error but it is not displayed.

  1. Enable debug
  2. Enable error_reporting and display_errors settings in your php.ini.

Like you say there are some errors.But, reading a lot i discover that the project never generate the verdor folder, so, i run composer update on it and bum.

Another error.
Fileinfo extension should be enabled on php.ini.
So next, uncoment line and run “composer update” again and there are another error.
-The requested URL was not found on this server…http://localhost/pruebaphpmaker/login
(I enable the basic security for the site)
???

Don’t skip. You need to install all the required PHP extensions, read System Requirements → Composer.

All done. Starting from the very begining but still no page result.

I try this https://phpmaker.dev/download.php#url-rewrite and nothing.

Errors none.
On access file:
127.0.0.1 - - [16/Aug/2021:02:38:24 -1100] “GET /pruebaphpmaker/EquipoList HTTP/1.1” 404 196

Since you use a subpath (/pruebaphpmaker/), did you try the RewriteBase directive in the .htaccess?

8

Yes i try, with and without.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
RewriteBase /pruebaphpmaker/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /pruebaphpmaker/index.php [QSA,L]

Did you set up AllowOverride?From the help file:Make sure your virtual host is configured with the AllowOverride option so that the .htaccess rewrite rules can be used. Open your httpd.conf or apache.conf in a text editor, and locate the section and change the AllowOverride line to:AllowOverride All

10 
#
# Deny access to the entirety of your server's filesystem. You must
# explicitly permit access to web content directories in other 
# <Directory> blocks below.
#
<Directory />
    AllowOverride all
    Require all
</Directory>

You may click Tools → Advanced Settings, double check and enable the follows:

  • Debug
  • Treat PHP warnings and notices as errors
  • Log SQL to file
  • Log error to file
  • Environment => development

In your php.ini, double check and enable the follows:

  • error_reporting=E_ALL
  • display_errors=On
  • log_errors=On
  • error_log=“d:\my\path\php_error_log”

Generate all files again. Run the site and check the log files in the site and the PHP error log file again.

12

All done. No errors.
log_errors = On
error_log = “C:\AppServ\php7\logs\php_error_log.log”

13

Then it means it is not a PHP error.

Since it is 404 (Not Found), you may want to check the Apache settings again.Since you run your site at C:\AppServ, make sure the read/write permissions are probably set for the web server user.

Listing my errors.The Apache service named reported the following error:

>>> Argument for 'Require all' must be 'granted' or 'denied'     .

-----------------------------------------------------------------(error)
<Directory />
    AllowOverride all
    Require all
</Directory>
----------------------------------------------------------------- (should be)
<Directory />
    AllowOverride all
    Require all granted
</Directory>
----------------------------------------------------------------------(with this the job is done)
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /pruebaphpmaker/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^ /pruebaphpmaker/index.php [QSA,L]

------------------------------------------------------------------- (My advise to others…)
There are a lot of configuration files to modify. Take your time.
Enable all the possible sources to catch errors. (i find mine at system logs)https://phpmaker.dev/download.php#url-rewrite
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html
https://discourse.hkvstore.com/t/migrating-to-v2022/655/1 this and all the advise (enabling debuging, logs, etc) like post says.Thanks for your time. I learn a lot. I’m gratefull.
