Title: Index.php – Empty no content Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Index.php – Empty no content * Resolved [pvarkey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pvarkey/) * (@pvarkey) * [19 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/indexphp-empty-no-content/) * Hello Everyone, Am using a hosting service. Installed WordPress and the DB files– went smoothly. I can log into the Dashboard, even see my rss feed through an aggregator. But, my index.php page has no data in it, it shows up blank on the browser. Any clues on what’s happening and how I can fix it? Thx ppl.

The plugins all seem to be deactivated, but I still renamed the directories in wp-config. -> no change. The account is new, so I am still trying to figure out where I can find error logs, but… I started testing some of the other pages: and I get an error when I try to launch :[http://tharakan.net/varkey/blog/wp-settings.php](http://tharakan.net/varkey/blog/wp-settings.php) of the following nature: ` Warning: main(ABSPATHwp-includes/wp-db.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:inetpubtharakanvarkeyblogwp-settings. php on line 72 Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'ABSPATHwp-includes/ wp-db.php' (include_path='.;c:phppear') in D:inetpubtharakanvarkeyblogwp-settings. php on line 72 * This might explain more * [moshu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moshu/) * (@moshu) * [19 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/indexphp-empty-no-content/#post-481998) * _I still renamed the directories in wp-config. -> no change._ * Care to explain this? There is nothing related to directories in that file… and you you shouldn’t change anything in it, except the required DB info! * Also, you seem to be on a Win (IIS) server – try to search for fixes. * Thread Starter [pvarkey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pvarkey/) * (@pvarkey) * [19 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/indexphp-empty-no-content/#post-481999) * Hello Moshu, allow me to elaborate, that statement was made with reference to the plugins. I confirmed that the plugins were not activated. As an additional failsafe I renamed the directories of the plugins in the wp-content/plugins location.( This was done to ensure that the plugins would be deactivated for sure – it might have not been necessary). Yes, I am on an IIS hosted service, I am searching for fixes. The hosting service’s KB does not have any thing on WP fixes. Thank you, am continuing to search. * Thread Starter [pvarkey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pvarkey/) * (@pvarkey) * [19 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/indexphp-empty-no-content/#post-482023) * My issues have been resolved; this thread can be closed. HandySolo and Moshu, Thank you for all your help. I went through the configuration steps and reconfigured all the permissions on my hosted web server. (Don’t want to go through it again:() But got it up and running now. Still setting up and porting the data, but I am….“ good to go”… * [Chris_K](https://wordpress.org/support/users/handysolo/) * (@handysolo) * [19 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/indexphp-empty-no-content/#post-482024) * Glad to hear it – thanks for the followup. * Happy Blogging! * [idodoodle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/idodoodle/) * (@idodoodle) * [19 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/indexphp-empty-no-content/#post-482178) * Can someone please explain this step posted by Pvarkey two posts prior? * > I went through the configuration steps and reconfigured all the permissions > on my hosted web server. * I use FileZilla and I tried to change the permissions of my index.php file to 666 but when I look back at it it has reverted back to 000. Should I be using another program? * Thanks in advance, * Laine * [idodoodle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/idodoodle/) * (@idodoodle) * [19 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/indexphp-empty-no-content/#post-482179) * Upon further research I’ve realized I can’t change the file permissions because of restrictions set by my host. I’ve contacted my hosting service.

And I already setup everything to 666. I still can’t start any pages from my site. * Can you please tell me how can you * > go through the configuration steps and reconfigured. * I can’t access any php pages. All pages are giving time out error. And when I try to access wp-settings.php I got the following error: _ Warning: main(ABSPATHwp- includes/wp-db.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /domains/1700/web/blog/wp-settings.php on line 72 * Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘ABSPATHwp-includes/ wp-db.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /domains/1700/web/blog/wp- settings.php on line 72 Viewing 11 replies - 1 through 11 (of 11 total) The topic ‘Index.php – Empty no content’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [Blank](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/blank/) * [index.php](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/index-php/) * [installation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/installation/) * In: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) * 11 replies * 5 participants * Last reply from: [garylam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/garylam/) * Last activity: [19 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/indexphp-empty-no-content/#post-482190) * Status: resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
