glad it is working for you. 1.6 is a better option in particular for a community/social site if for no other reason than the ACL options.

The biggest problem that I’ve seen with the php.ini is the post limit. I believe the default for php is 2mb. The normal JomSocial install including the Zend packets will typically fail with that limit in place. Since you’re on a ded server my personal recommendation would be to start at 12m – or whatever you are comfortable with. But some virtual hosts won’t let you do that.

I don’t mind to go for Joomla1.6 but I had some previous experience with J1.5 so I preferred to go for it, but it’s time to change.
So I stay with Joomla1.6 and JA Social and I am happy like this.

To sum up the steps I did so far ( for others to have a clue with possible problems ):
1) I have checked my apache2 error logfile to understand some potential problems (var/log/apache2/error.log )
2) I have checked my php.ini to see if “Resource Limits” settings were properly set (in particular my “memory_limit” was set to 128mb and I think it was enough)
3) I have installed separately Joomla 1.5.23 and later the template (+ required plugins), but still had the same blank homepage.
4) I gave full read-write-execute rights to my virtual user, with chown -R myuser:mygroup * and chmod -R *
…but the blank page still was not resolved, so I upgraded to J1.6.

Thanks for your support.</blockquote>
