No modules work..

New install of 0.92

None of the modules work at all - If I click run, they just display a blank page.
eg - click on QuickEdit from a content page in the live site, it goes to a blank page.

php error log doesn’t show any errors.
apache error log doesn’t show any errors.

If I tail the access_log I can see the page url being accessed eg - GET /manager/index.php?a=112&id=1 HTTP/1.1

Just no output. (And no errrors either!).

I’ve even tried putting some simple error checking into the module source - eg

echo "here";

Still no output.

I’ve even tried making a dummy module that just consists of

echo "here";
return "anything";

but I don’t see anything.

Any recommendations for troubleshooting?

Usually I’d go by whatever errors I can find, but in this case I’m stumped!

Clues appreciated.

Its really weird!

Can you double check the files ? if they are intact and correctly uploaded ?

Do you have the right to run modules? Check your settings: Administration -> Role management -> [role name] -> Module management. "Run module" must be checked.

Only one user - administrator.

I’m assuming I have the right to run modules as admin - it doesn’t let me change any of those settings.

BTW - its not Administration , its Users -> Role Management...

I’ve tried installing on a different server, I still can’t get any modules running.

I’m downloading the 0.92 from the site. Everything else seems to work, just not modules.
Which is a pity, as I’m trying to get SMF working with MODx.

Any other ideas?

I’m willing to give access to the server if someone wants to look.

Found out the problem.

A mixture of apache dying (silently!), and some corrupted files i think.

I eventually did a parallel install (unzip the files again, then reconfigure for the same database), and mysteriously the modules started working.

From the same zip file...

Then apache started bombing out with seg 11’s. Took out ob_gzip in php.ini and everything started working nicely.

No idea why none of the logs were giving me any errors, but hey, its working now!

Hopefully this will help someone else.
