   I have just set up two WP sites (first time) and get a blank white screen on one and the other is just fine...
   I purchased 2 sites (domains and sites), I've uploaded all the files and db's. The DNS info has already propagated.

   The first site was simple - I just created a db in my hosting control panel (GoDaddy) and then uploaded a copy of the db. I changed the config.php info and it is now working just fine http://www.goinglonggolf.com

   But, I did the same exact steps for the 2nd site and just gives me a blank white page (www.goodputting.com/blog). The guy I bought the sites from noted it was a little more difficult than the other....because the home page (http://www.goodputting.com) is a static HTML page. The blog at (http://www.goodputting.com/blog). I set up a new temporary index file for the static home page, but when I go to http://www.goodputting.com/blog it is blank.

   I've already been over the config.php file, etc. Its not displaying any connection errors so it is connecting with the db, nothing is displayed. I can login succussfuly at /wp-admin.

   Any suggestions? Where I might look, etc.

   Thanks!

   You're using the same database for 2 different installs of WP? Did you use the same config.php file for both installations? If so, did you remember to change the table_prefix setting for the second one? it *sounds* like you didn't. Therefore, the second installation is connected to the first. Since the files are in the wrong place, it can't find them, so you're getting a blank white page.

   Try opening up the config.php file for the 2nd install and changing the table_prefix to something different.
