   Hi,

   I am currently working on a WordPress installation at school for my latest project. I have installed on a local server using MAMP, and it has been working great until recently. The problems is the dreaded "white screen of death", without any error messages at all. Nothing! Just a blank page. I have double-checked that the server via MAMP is running as it should, which it does - so that is definately not the problem here. I have some other PHP scripts on my local server that runs just fine..

   I have also tried to access /wp-admin, but it is also blank like the blog itself. Any ideas what might be wrong here? I don't think I have installed any weird plugins or themes recently that should be able to cause this mess. I am quite desperate here, so I highly appreciate all the help you can give me. I really really do not want to start all over again, as I did spend some hours on it already.

   I attach 2 of the latest logs from my "MAMP/LOGS/PHP" folder.

   22-Aug-2011 07:30:13] PHP Warning: require_once(/Users/*user_name*/Sites/wordpress/wp-content/themes/Video/library/functions/ theme_variables.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Users/*user_name*/Sites/wordpress/wp-content/themes/Video/functions.php on line 28

   [22-Aug-2011 07:30:13] PHP Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/Users/*user_name*/Sites/wordpress/wp-content/themes/Video/library/functions/theme_variables. php' (include_path='.:/Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/lib/php') in /Users/*user_name*/Sites/wordpress/wp-content/themes/Video/functions.php on line 28

   I am not an expert in reading such error messages, but it definately looks like something is wrong in line 28 in functions.php, right? Below I have pasted the contents of that line, hope that helps.
   
   // Theme variables
   require_once (TEMPLATEPATH . '/library/functions/theme_variables.php');

   Not sure to be honest. I am still quite new to this.

   /library/functions/theme_variables.php - Is it supposed to be a "library" folder inside the theme "video"? Because there is not..

   The problem is solved, thanks to a good classmate of mine.

   The problem was definately with the theme. He switched back to default theme via myPhpAdmin (database tables), deleted old theme and downloaded it again. Works great now! Thanks for help fonglh :)
