blank page errors are apache errors. Check your apache logs for the error being thrown.

Considering the page you are trying to access when you get the blank page, it is likely that you are exhausting memory on the server. Confirm this by checking the apache error logs. you may have to contact your host for the location of these logs, or to have them sent to you for your inspection.

Same with me - after messing with the database, I have blank pages enywhere except the home page. No way to log in or reconfigure the system, turn modules off, etc. Need a failsafe mode guys!

Hello Mahmudd.
I browsed around and here is what I found:

STEP 1: Diagnose.
1. Page turns blank instantly: cache problem. Needs to flushed manually in phpMyAdmin
2. Page turns blank it a few seconds: php error or incompatible modules. Mine was CCK and caching on - incompatible. If you can't log in try removing and new modules from your modules folder.
3. Page turns blank after long time - memory timeout.

Hi, All,

Running on 6.5, I experienced the same thing. Fixed it by removing the most recently installed module: Views.

Hope that helps.

well, mine was set to 128M now set to 512M... Still showing blank page... I haven't tried reinstalling modules though. obviously, cant uninstall from modules page, so will have to do it manually. Hopefully this will cure things... Need to add Ubercart to my site.

I was having similar problems, turned on display_errors in Apache and found some issues with my theme... not sure if this will help you but at least it might tell you what is going on..

THANKS for all advice - mine was caused by Views module (which is pretty big). I deleted it from the modules folder manually to confirm that it was causing the problem. I increased the php memory in php.ini to 96MB and reinstated Views module and now works fine!
