  New Install Content Not Visible

  operating system - Windows XP
  version of ATutor - 1.5.2
  versions of php - PHP 4.3.8 as Module

  I have successfully installed ATutor 1.5.2, and everything seemed to be working fine. However, I have discovered that upon trying to view any content, a blank page is loaded. This goes for the "Welcome to ATutor" content, as well as custom created content.
  
  I can't seem to get a phpinfo page (ATutor/include/info.php) to work properly.
  
  I have submitted admin/instructor access information throught the contact form.

  Re: New Install, Content Not Visible

  It may be because the system has register_global turned on. You can turn it off locally by creating a ".htaccess" file, with the leading dot, and placing it in the root directory of your ATutor installation. The file should contain the following line:
  
  php_flag register_globals off
  
  or
  
  try replacing the content.php file with a fresh copy from the source code repository.

  Re: New Install, Content Not Visible

  Replacing the content.php seems to have solved the problem. Upon further investigation I found that my original copy was completely empty.
  
  Thank you for the prompt support. I'm looking forward to diving into this CMS and seeing what it has to offer.
