    This question may be related to a resolved thread.

    I get a blank page after the trackbacks screen in the update wizard. I don’t get any errors on the screen just a blank page.

    I went through the entire process several times with the same results, restoring the original files and the database each time.

    I had the same problem today.
    I don’t know if this can help but I replaced the code in installer/controllers/wizard.php from line 164-169 with this code

    function Wizard()
        {
            parent::Controller();
            
            // Third party constants
            define('PATH_THIRD',    EE_APPPATH.'third_party/');
            
            $req_source = $this->input->server('HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH');
            define('AJAX_REQUEST',    ($req_source == 'XMLHttpRequest') ? TRUE : FALSE);

    Thanks but this causes a database error -

    A Database Error Occurred

    Error Number: 1060

    Duplicate column name ‘last_author_id’

    ALTER TABLE `exp_templates` ADD `last_author_id` INT(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AFTER `edit_date`

    I understand there is a EE file fix for this error and will wait in the hopes that it will be sent.

    Closing this.

    I never received the file fix - downloaded the new release of 2.1.0 instead.

    Currently working my way through installation, tried it on 2 machines so far with SQL errors on one and php warnings and a redirect to the installer on another.

    I will continue to persevere but you may be hearing from me again!
