Topic: Blank index.php problem solved - Solaris w/SQLite...

I found many posts of people getting blank index.php results after installing.  I did, too.  Some people had various solutions, but none of the worked for me.  I found my specific issue was PHP's bundled SQLite coredumping on the SUM() function.  I verified this by building a stand-alone SQLite client.  I found this was one of the bugs fixed in a more recent release of SQLite and I'm going to try to patch the bundled source in PHP with this:

---------------

<yourphpsourcetree>
./ext/pdo_sqlite/sqlite/src/vdbeInt.h
./ext/sqlite/libsqlite/src/vdbeInt.h

replace

char zShort[NBFS];

with

char zShort[NBFS] __attribute__ ((__aligned__(16)));

---------------

Hope this helps others.  It was quite an adventure. smile

BTW, this worked - much punbb confusion resolved...

You could have seen it in your Apache logs about the child process bailing out and then you've got to decide why - bad Apache, bad PHP, bad SQLite, or bad PunBB?  On Solaris, using PHP, bad SQLite.
