I am developing a site on a joyent accelerator server and after loading the EE installation successfully, I cannot get even the simplest page to load.

Is there anything I should know about joyent servers?

What are you getting when you try to access your site, Corni?  And is the control panel also inaccessible?

thanks for your speedy reply Derek-
The control panel is accessible. But when I try to load the index page I get a blank page and when I view page source I see also no source code.

I did see the page once when I first pastedn in the code. It was not styled because I hadn’t copied over the style sheet yet. When I copied over the style sheet and changed the reference, everything broke.

I can view a separate page I put up with simple html in it so I know the DNS is working.

Can you please see this KB Entry so we can try to force displaying PHP errors, as a blank page is usually an indication of a hidden php error.

Also, make sure your debugging preference is set to 1 at:  CP Home ›  Admin ›  System Preferences ›  Output and Debugging Preferences

I have run EE on Joyent accelerators et al for many moons with nary a problem - even joyously at times. There are no server-specific problems of which I am aware.

You guys are the best!

For some reason the path.php file mentioned in the KB article was not there (!)
I re-uploaded it. And re-ran the install file - I had to reload a config.php which was empty.

So I’m back to a nice default site. Which loads. I can see it.

So far so good.

many thanks.

Wonder if the path file got clobbered somehow?

whew! It’s not beautiful yet but this is on the way to somewhere rather than nowhere—
