Upgrade to 7.1.1 - member.php loads blank @ login

Hello,

I just upgraded from 7.1 B2 to 7.1, then immediately upgraded to 7.1.1

followed instructions and it all seemed to go as it should. Stated a successful upgrade, and I followed all the manual instructions after.

Now, all of a sudden when I enter username and password and click to login, the page loads blank in the browser at url: domain.com/member.php

When I view source, it looks like there's lots of code there, but nothing is displaying.

I upgraded my java thinking that might be it, but didn't help.

Has anyone else had this happen? Any ideas on what's going on and how to fix it?

Thanks,

Jam

Please make sure that /cache/ and /cache_public/ folders were really cleaned (leave only .htaccess file there), for sure try to delete these cache files manually.

also some php versions have display error in the off state you may need to turn it on to see if there is any errors on the page  or just look in your Apache error logs. you may even have an error.log in your root folder of dolphin as well...

ok, I checked the /cache/ and /cache_public/ folders. Re-deleted all files in both except for .htaccess.

Tried to reload and still get the same thing. Do I need to do something else afterwards? It seems those files replenish themselves quickly if the site is accessed.

Question regarding the php errors:

There is no error.log in dolphin root. So how would I turn on error display for php? Or where do I find the Apache error logs. I am running on a VPS with very minimal setup, so SSH terminal commands would be easiest.

Thanks,

could be in:

/etc/httpd/logs/error_log

/usr/local/apache/logs/error_log

you could also do       find -name error_log

you can also look in php.ini and see if display errors is on

ok, I found the error logs for apache and checked them (For anyone who wants to know how to check thes or turn on php errors check these links: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/apache-logs/ & http://php.about.com/od/troubleshooting/qt/php_error_reporting.htm)

Here's what i discovered: 1 of the repeating errors is:

"File does not exist: ../DolphinRoot.com/blogs, referer : http://DolphinRoot.com/blogs/"

not sure what that means?!

next repeating error message was:

"PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in ../DolphinRoot.com/modules/boonex/payment/classes/BxPmtCart.php on line 136"

This is definitely a change I made when following the directions in a readme file for installing a module that didn't install correctly. The module creator is currently helping me to install it properly, so hopefully that will fix one or both errors.

Thanks,
