Hello world - blank page

[Jester]

Hi, I'm developer beginner with processwire.

I'm installing new virtual machine in azure with PW bitnami package.

I following the hello world tutorial, but the earth page, with planet.php template, appear blank.

https://processwire.com/docs/tutorials/hello-worlds/

I have tried everything, including permissions on the planet.php file, but unfortunately it does not work.

Any suggestions ?

Hi Jester and welcome to the forum,

not sure what could be the issue, but I guess it would help if you provided more infos for us. What steps did you take (sometimes writing down the steps already leads to an "aha" moment )? What is working (I guess the admin works just fine as you say you tried changing settings), what is not? Maybe add some screenshots? Maybe look into the error logs of your site (/site/assets/logs/...).

And my #1 developer tip: Install Tracy Debugger and see if it shows you anything helpful

What bernhard said - also please tell us which output strategy you use, and which profile did you installed to play with the tutorial (if there is one..) ?

[Jester]

I'm not set the output strategy or profile, all is default.

I follow the "Hello worlds ! A processwire tutorial" and to the step 3: " Click the View link that appears on this page edit screen. You should see the output of the HTML from step 1. Click the back button in your browser to return to the edit screen.", appear the blank page.

I set $config->debug = true; in the config.php file and the output to the earth page is:

Warning: file_put_contents(/opt/bitnami/apps/processwire/htdocs/site/assets/cache/FileCompiler/site/templates/_init.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /opt/bitnami/apps/processwire/htdocs/wire/core/FileCompiler.php on line 389

This error appear also in the other page: home. about, etc etc.

Any suggestions ?

Thank you Bernhard !

I set permission to the directory 777 and files to 666 and now "hello world" tutorial is done !

However, I will see to set the security and permissions appropriately to my host virtual machine.
