Clicking the "Remote Site Content" link on the configuration configuration page of Drupal Admin section returns a blank page.

This originally happened on an existing site using Domain Access. I also tried this on a fresh installation of Drupal and I got the same behaviour.

No help doc was provided with the module, so no abvious way tot try to debug.

Thanks for having a look at this.

Are there any messages in the drupal watchdog log related to this blank page? Do you have site configured to display all error messages?

Hi,

On a fresh Drupal installation, I enabled the Remote content module, got the blank page from the admin...

The only message I saw in the Report section is :
Type page not found
Date Friday, November 22, 2013 - 20:21
User admin
Location http://dev2.ici-medias2.ca/favicon.ico
Referrer
Message favicon.ico
Severity warning
Hostname 70.53.234.56
Operations

Is this related ? Does it make sense ?

Thanks for following up. The Remote Content module seems to be very promising.

Can not reproduce a blank page with fresh installation of latest Drupal 7.24.

Test sites are based on drupal 7.24, views 3.7, ctools 1.3, and remote_content 1.x-dev.
Configuration page at admin/config/content/remote_content displays with nothing to configure as the sites do not have any content types and only one database definition in their settings.php files.

I suspect the issue is the use of syntax that requires PHP 5.3+ on the settings page. Can you install PHP 5.3? Otherwise change line 47 in includes/settings.inc to be:
'#default_value' => isset($connections[$key]['url']) ? $connections[$key]['url'] : '',

The module info file does not list this as a dependency (and should, although we should all be on at least 5.3).

Marking fixed for two reasons:

  • lack of further feedback
  • if the blank page was related to PHP 5.3+ syntax, this was changed in this commit.
