    I have the same issue with Error 404 Logger. I’ve tracked this done to a php.ini setting. I needed to change my original php.ini, since register_globals was on. Using the original php.ini, I was able to view the module. After I had uploaded the php.ini.recommended (from php.net), things went wrong (showing the actual php content in the manager frame.

    Below is a summary of the difference between the two php.ini files. Hope this helps someone. I haven’t figured out which setting to change to get this working.

      Well, the previous post did have the solution in there grin

      I’ve changed only short_open_tag = Off to short_open_tag = On and this problem went away (also with Error404Logger, btw).

      Hope this helps someone.
      • Short tags should be a major no-no too! I think they’ve in fact been deprecated in PHP6.

          But would that mean that these two modules are the only ones to use short tags?
