Forum Failure after Upgrade from 7.1.0 to 7.1.1

After upgrading from 7.1.0 to 7.1.1, the Forums will not display.  All other steps of upgrade were successful, except for "Recompiling Forum Language" file as I am not able to access the Forums.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

Are you viewing it with the default UNI template? Is it an entirely blank page, or is there an error message?

1.  It is displaying a bunch of code when I go the Admin --> Modules --> Forums

2.  It doesn't matter what template is being used.  The code is displaying.

Here is a sample of the code displaying:

I am about to reinstall the entire forum module.

Is PHP compiled with XSLT support? Check under Administration => Tools => Host Tools => phpinfo and search for "xsl" or "xslt". This can happen if that extension is missing or otherwise not working.

If you do decide to try reinstalling the forum module, back up the existing forum tables first so you don't lose your forum posts.

Overwrite the forum module files with the ones from the 7.1.1 zip.  I don't know if there were any table changes with the forum; so that needs to be investigated or you might have issues importing the tables from the backups.

If the forum posts are important; then let's first examine other options first.

Yes, that is what I found too.  So, I am working to get XSL enabled.

Thanks for the reply.

Geek Girl,

When I reinstalled the Forum, I discovered the XSL was not enabled.  Hopefully once it is enabled, then the forums will install and work properly.

Thanks Laughing

Whew...I got it resolved.  Here is the way I enabled XSL for others with VPS WHM:

Go to WHM -> Software -> EasyApache (Apache Update)

On the EasyApache page, choose Start customizing based on profile now, and after a couple screens, choose Exhaustive Options List. Select the modules to install, XSL in this case, and proceed to recompile.

Then how was it possible that your forum was working in 7.1.0 when it needed the same XSLT support?
