Impossible to install Newscoop
  • Due to the fact that Newscoop will not run well on shared servers I subscribed for a dedicated server at my webhoster.

    Now I try since six hours to install Newscoop. I did exactly step by step from this tutorial http://en.flossmanuals.net/newscoop-4-journalists-en-4-0/getting-started/ and also I tried this quiet similar tutorial : http://forum.sourcefabric.org/discussion/14392/manual-installation-ubuntu-12-04

    All did go well but I got always a blank screen after the last step, the database setup.

    Is there nobody out there who
    can help ?

    Regards
    Peter
