First recommendation would be to delete the WordPress files, then reupload them. Make sure you use the ‘auto’ Transfer Type in FileZilla to upload the files.

Hi MichaelH, thanks for your post.
I’ve deleted all the files and uploaded to the server again but I’m still getting the blank page.
I checked the ‘auto’ transfer setting and that’s ok.
All the files are up.
Any other idea?
Thanks!
Make sure your wp-config.php file doesn’t have extra white space at the end of the file. If necessary, start with a clean wp-config.php file (from wp-config-sample.php) and use that with the properly configured information.
Check with your host to make sure PHP is up and running. Verify that you also have enough memory allocated to PHP (ask your host).
I’m having the same problems. My sysadmin suggested looking at my logs. Here’s what a tail -F… produced:
[Tue Jul 08 11:03:26 2008] [error] [client 97.112.79.7] ALERT – canary mismatch on efree() – heap overflow detected (attacker ‘97.112.79.7’, file ‘/usr/www/data/virtual/borealowl/htdocs/wp-includes/taxonomy.php’, line 18)
Strange! I can run a simple test.php with phpinfo() and it spills its php info guts just fine. Any ideas? BTW this is a BSD host.
I also thought of file permissions. What should they be, for example, for wp-config.php. Mine has a password for the mySQL database in it.
This is what my sysadmin did:
I added:
~ php_flag zend.ze1_compatibility_mode Off
~ php_value memory_limit 32M
to the apache vhost config for the domain.
The first line shuts off PHP4 compatibility.
And now it seems to come up okay.

Hi,
I added one line int the .htacces file to allow error messages to be displayed and now I can see an error:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 11520 bytes) in /webcp/docs/webs/256645/www/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/post.php on line 450
I tried adding the lines that Whitmore said but is still not working.

Thanks MichaelH, tomorrow I will call the host to see how much memory is asigned to PHP.
