For some reason Boost does not generate the page cahce or .html in the "cache/normal/mysite.com /" directory, but if it generates .htaccess ... sometimes generates html files but are empty, only contain the comments of boost.
I have a site running on the same vps and boost worked immediately.
Make all the settings for .htaccess and did not work.

I think that somehow does not recognize the site when an anonymous user visits it, but it seems weird that generates a empty html.

I've been thinking about this especially the comment about having a VPS where another installation works.

  1. Boost only works for anonymous users.
  2. The way Drupal works is that it opens a string writes out and replaces all the html required, sends it to the browser.
  3. Boost steps in at the last moment and write that string to a file.

In conclusion you must have a module that it flushing the buffer before reaching the boost module, so the issue will be resolved once you can establish the difference in modules between the two sites. You can use the grep command to look for ob_flush or one of the other PHP commands that would clear the buffer, searching in your sites folder; similar to this

cd YOUR_FOLDER
grep " ob_" `find . -type f`
