Had the same problem on a fully updated system; went around with it for hours.
Watched the logs with tail -f, no error messages. PHP5/apache2/mysql connections were all working. No firewall in the way, doublechecked permissions on directories. Even purged everything involved with Apache, php5, and moodle, including dependencies, several times (kept mysql though, as the previous testing suggested the problem was not with that). Continued to get a blank page at http://localhost/moodle/admin as well as .../admin/index.php (with a 200 http code), while if I put up a simple html index page at .../admin/index.html, it *would* show (after I adjusted the conf files so that html was a recognized index file extension). So no luck ... until I: 1) purged everything (including dependencies) connected to apache2, php5, and moodle; 2) used Adept Manager instead of aptitude; and 3) Used mysql passwords containing only alphanumeric characters (no punctuation-type stuff). Bam. Success on first try. Running great now. -- can't create database tables https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172420 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
