Ever since going from 6.1 -> 6.2.1 I have been getting a white screen of death when trying to create or edit content.

The only unique part of about my setup is that I am running in a virtualized environment, so my .htaccess file has

RewriteBase /

...and this to decrease page loads...

#MOD DEFLATE Logic:
#If mod_deflate then
#- no CSS Gzip
#- no JS Gzip
#- only use minify from the JavaScript Aggregator module, if desired
#- disable page compression
# Enable file compression by MIME type
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/javascript
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css
# Exclude Not compatible browsers (uncomment to activate)
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip
BrowserMatch \bMSI[E] !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html

Also nothing is showing up in my drupal logs after the white screen.

blank pages are apache errors, check your apache logs.

most often WSOD, is related to a memory exhaustion.

In addition to #2 I would also check the following:

  • Run update.php
  • Clear all caches
  • Uncheck all performance optimizations (browser's CSS file limit may become an issue with that, but otherwise all content and JS should load)
  • Is the uploaded code complete? (FTP does break transmissions, and depending on FTP client it may pass unnoticed)

If nothing from the above helps, please report your other modules versions (and date for -dev):

  • ImageCache
  • Image API
  • Lightbox2 or Thickbox

I'm seeing WSOD too. From my apache error log:

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function imagecache_preset_by_name() in /u0/var/www/xxxxx/sites/all/modules/itweak_upload/itweak_upload.module on line 241, referer: http://xxxxxx/admin/settings
[Wed Aug 05 09:40:21 2009] [error] [client 142.58.131.27] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function imagecache_preset_by_name() in /u0/var/www/xxxxxxx/sites/all/modules/itweak_upload/itweak_upload.module on line 241, referer: http://xxxxxxx/admin/settings

I don't have ImageCache installed, and don't want to since I don't need thumbnails. It appears that ImageCache is a prereq for iTweak Upload?

Thanks for the log info!

The intent was to avoid ImageCache being a prereq, but I may have overlooked one place.

I will patch this in -dev shortly.

I patched -dev. New tarball should appear within 12 hours. Please try and report if that fixes the problem.

@animelion
I will keep this issue active for other WSOD reports, in case -dev did not fix it for you or anyone else.

P.S.
I think that iTweak Upload will need an option to show mime icon instead of thumbnail in case ImageCache is not installed. Currently it shows full image. I consider it a new feature, and I've put it on top of my queue. I will make a new release once it's done. Should not take long.
