I just found another thread regarding this issue:
showthread.php?t=11952
In that thread you requested that the person reporting the issue put the following code at line 1 of the page that was showing up blank (/install/2.php). I have done so, and am having the same result that user had. The page is STILL BLANK.
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors','on');
?>
I really need some help getting this up and going. If anyone has seen this problem before, any insight is appreciated.
