Nuke Sentinel made my website blank...

Hello, I uploaded nuke sentinel to my website, and made all the changes to the files according to the readme. I went to nsnst.php in my browser, but it shows a blank white page. I went back to my site, now all my pages blank. I am running a backup of my website for the time being, if anyone could help I would be grateful.

Did you login using admin.php first, then change the URL to nsnst.php?

I was already logged in as admin when I uploaded everything, so no, I didnt go to admin.php first.

Log out or close your browser. Go to admin.php. Then nsnst.php. See what happens.

i'm getting the same screen when i try to install the error,
Its fine putting all the files but once i stick the code:

Code:

<?php
if ($forum_admin == 1) {
include("../../../includes/sentinel.php");
} elseif ($inside_mod == 1) {
include("../../includes/sentinel.php");
} else {
include("includes/sentinel.php");
}

into the config.php - i refresh the screen and it just goes blank!

I also have protector installed could this be clashing?? if so how do i delete/ uninstall protector?

First of all, that chunk of code goes into mainfile.php, not config.php. Smile

As for Protector, it could possibly be creating the problem, although I know sites that use both. Protector comes with its own uninstaller script and instructions -- you upload the installer script into your root directory, and run it from your browser. Choose the uninstall option and it will clear out the tables relating to Protector. Read the installation instructions to see which files to remove manually.

Try fixing config.php and mainfile.php first and see what happens.

I am having a bit of trouble with Sentinel my self

I have it installed but when i put that code above in the mainfile.php the your account stuff breaks and no one can log in.

I am running PHP Nuke 7.6 patched 2.9 Last Visit and Sentinal pl4

any ideas? I looked at the your account fix but it doesnt apply to my version and the entries I am to replace arent there as written in the fix.

I get the white page just for the forum admin. Everything else appears to be working okay . I'm using nuke 7.5. Assistance greatly appreciated. I've tried changing the suggested code from Jaded Designs, but its still... blank.

I haven't checked the link above yet... but I worked out my problem Very Happy

For a start I have my config located outside of my web space so I had to make sure that I was properly referencing the config file in the nuksentinal.php file in the includes directory. (Line 29)

Once that was correctly pointing to the config it then showed a few errors appearing in the common.php file in the forum module directory.

So I went there and looked at the coding. What I discovered was line 181 and line 182 were not showing the same code as elsewhere. Had to change this from:

global $forum_admin;
if ($forum_admin == 1) {

to:

global $FORUM_ADMIN;
if (FORUM_ADMIN == 1) {

And now I no longer have a white screen when I try to access the forum admin! It works for me. I'm not a hardcore coder and I don't have much of an idea of what I did or if it was "correct". But it works.... so it has to be at least half right.
