Always on my fresh b2evolution installation, when I try to access the 'categories' tab from the admin interface, nothing happens. So I don't manage to create categories.

Can anyone help me with that ?

S.A.

Have to tried downloading the zip file again? It sounds like something's wrong with one of the files. When you say it does nothing, what do you mean? Do you get a 'Not Found' error, is it a blank page, or does it show the tabs at the top, but the area where you should be able to manage categories is empty?

It does nothing at all. I click on the tab, the link is good, but when I click it the page content doesn't change, as if I had just reloaded the page. I've tried to download the zip archive again from another location and it doesn't solve anything.

Any idea ?

If you want to make a limited user account, one that can't do anything but edit categories (and you can make a dummy blog for that purpose and give the account permissions only there) then some of us can log in and take a look at what's happening.

No problem. In fact I'm just testing b2evolution for the moment, so I don't intend to use it right now. I'll send you a private message with the account data.

I logged in and tried the category tab. Nothing happens. I tried going directly to the url, starting from a blank page. The blank page just stays blank. Then I tried right clicking on the category tab and saving the link as a file. At that point Firefox said that the web page may have moved. But IE says "Internet Explorer cannot download b2categories.php?blog=0 from blogs.epseelon.org. The server returned an invalid or unrecognized response." That's the best clue I have so far.

What version of PHP is your server running? Are you using Apache or IIS? Do all other aspects of b2evolution work correctly? Have you added posts, users, etc.? If you've installed the files several times, from various download locations, then the problem is probably not in the code. Can you check the error logs on your server to see if there are any clues there? Or maybe you could put PHP in debug mode so that it shows any errors it's getting.

EdB had some questions for you:

Did he re-upload everything in admin and b2evocore? Need to really do both because of how all the funcs that admin pages call live in b2evocore.

Also does he have a hacks.php file? I've seen cases where redefining an existing function in hacks.php causes a totally blank page. No error message about not being allowed to define the same function twice - just a totally blank page.

In fact I got the same problem. I'm using b2evo through my localhost using MAMP (same thing than EasyPHP but for Mac OS X). All others tabs seems to work.

Other thing, I'm building my own skin and when I want to use the code:

[code]<?php $Item->categories() ?>[code]

all that is below won't load on main page.

I also tried 2 or 3 older b2evo but I always had the same problem.[/code]

I'm having the same error... Running XAMPP 1.0 on windows..
Apache - 2.0.53 (Win32)
PHP - 5.0.4
MySQL - 4.1.11

When i click on the categories tab - (as the default admin - so I have got access to it) - it will sit there and do nothing....

This is probably a bug with PHP 5.0.4.

Are you using PHP 5.0.4, sarbogast?

Please upgrade to the last release, either 4.x or 5.x.
