Blank empty page when trying to configure Pathauto

There should be some errors in the apache log file. Can you look in that file to see what the error is?

New site, new install, blank page with error message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /web/eccego/eccego.hu/sites/all/modules/pathauto/pathauto_taxonomy.inc on line 115

Can you delete that file and replace it with a fresh copy? That's a pretty serious error and if it were true in the code in cvs there would be a lot of issues about it ;) So, I think this was probably a problem with the file getting corrupted in transfer.

I did and I got the pathauto settings page! Thanks!
(I think I 'd have never got the hang of it myself.)

Great to hear.

When ever I enable pathauto and try to configure it I get an empty page as well; I tried to see if I could see the same error as above but I don't see anything in my web server logs in /var/log/httpd.

Additionally, what this does is that when I try to post any content, as soon as I hit submit I also get a blank page, the content get posted its just that I don't get anything when I hit submit.

Hi wittusen - Just set old closed issues back to active if you have updated information on the topic. Then we keep things "threaded" in the best way. I don't always look at closed issues, but you can set the status back to active if you still experience the problem.

It's possible that the logs are going somewhere else. Are you sure that you are looking for logs in the right place?

I'd also suggest following the steps that got this working for fidoboy: namely, to delete the entire pathauto folder (make a backup first, of course) and then upload a brand new copy?

Also, make sure that you have the latest version of Token module installed as well.

With Token 5.x-1.10 and Pathauto 5.x-2.1 I get the blank empty page and these php errors (no apache errors):

PHP Fatal error:  Cannot redeclare date_token_list() (previously declared in /Users/.../Sites/.../sites/all/modules/date/date/date.module:361) in /Users/.../Sites/.../sites/all/modules/token/token_cck.inc on line 226

But with the latest version of Token module 5.x-1.x-dev and Pathauto 5.x-2.1 everything is fine.

OK - so this only affects certain users of date module and token module...

In the short term, just delete all the code about date_token_values from the token_cck.inc

In the long term there is an issue for token which fixes this...

More specifically it is #231907: Fatal error: Cannot redeclare date_token_list

This happened to me and turned out to be a problem with Frequently Asked Questions. There is an issue on that project page.
