Symfony Sandbox 1.2 returns a blank page after unpacking into web folder

Question

I have symfony 1.0 running on my Windows XP machine but have recently wanted to try Symfony 1.2.

I unpacked the sandbox and set up a virtual host. The page returned is blank.

http://sf_sandbox/web/ returns a blank page http://sf_sandbox/web/frontend_dev.php/ returns a blank page

PHP, SQLite, Mysql are all fine.

I tired adding

echo "test";

to the index.php and it outputs as expected.

Any idea what is going on?

Answer 1

Do you have any error in some error log ?
Like Apache's error log ?

Is there any way to enable error_reporting with symfony ?

A problem that might cause this is some required PHP extension not being enabled ; for instance, symfony might/does require PDO ; and if it's not enabled, it might cause some troubles.
About that, you can take a look at this thread (solution in the last post).

Answer 2

Fixed! PDO was not installed and Symfony does not generate an error.

Go into PHP.ini and make sure PDO is enabled.

extension=php_pdo.dll
;extension=php_pdo_firebird.dll
extension=php_pdo_mssql.dll
extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll
;extension=php_pdo_oci.dll
;extension=php_pdo_oci8.dll
;extension=php_pdo_odbc.dll
;extension=php_pdo_pgsql.dll
extension=php_pdo_sqlite.dll
