I am using drupal 4.6.5 and have installed various modules without any problems.

From today EVERY module I want to install generates the same error: After uploading the modules in the module folder, I want to activate the module through

administer > modules

and now get a blank site. After I delete the .module-File from the server, I can use the modules site again and activate and deactivate all of my "older" modules I have already installed before.

I have tested it with modules from core also (which I don't normally use, e. g. aggregation) - same thing: blank site until I delete the .module-File again.

As far as I know I haven't changed anything.

Maybe a crash in the tables?

Search for "blank screen module" or "memory" for a hundred instances of this (hard-to-track-down-the-first-time) FAQ.

FTR- you should have looked at your apache httpd.log and php.log - You would have seen the "Out of Memory" error coming up there, and figured out what to look for after that.

I'm thinking this is so common it should really be noted in the install.txt

Thanks! Now it works. I think your right, should be in the install.txt (Noob me :) )

And that's why we have a Troubleshooting FAQ...

Try the entry My admin > modules page is blank.

Thanks for sharing the log file information -- I was having the same problem with saving the admin/modules page and in the log file it says out of memory.
