I have this drupal 7 site. I wanted to clone it in order to try some new stuff in it, without working on my localhost. So I did it, following these steps:
Cloned the database:
mysqldump -h localhost -u XX -p XXX > backup.sql
mysql -h localhost -u newXX -p newXX < backup.sql
And then cloned the files and changed their perms:
rsync -avHl /home/XX/public_html/* /home/newXX/public_html
chown -R newXX. /home/newXX/public_html/*
After that I've updated and changed the settings file (to use in the cloned files the new database credentials), and created a new .htmlaccess file.
All went well and good. The new site was just like the older site, and both sites were running ok.
A few days have passed since then.
But after that the old site have all WSOD inside every page, except the frontpage.
It was a cache problem, that didn't solved clearing all cache tables, but adding this into my settings file:
$conf = array(
'cache' => '0',
'preprocess_css' => '0',
'preprocess_js' => '0',
'block_cache' => '0',
'page_compression' => '0',
);
The thing is that I can't have my site without caching, and even after successfully logging in and manually unchecked all cache items under admin/config/development/performance, I get the WSOD if I try and remove the $conf array I've manually set at the settings.php file.
Note: I have memcached installed on my server, and this is what I've added in my settings.php file:
$conf['cache_backends'][] = 'sites/all/modules/memcache/memcache.inc';
$conf['cache_default_class'] = 'MemCacheDrupal';
$conf['memcache_key_prefix'] = 'memcache_liga';
$conf['cache_class_cache_form'] = 'DrupalDatabaseCache';
Please note that I've uninstalled memcache module on the cloned site, and deleted that configuration inside the settings file of the cloned site.
Why is all this happening? And what I may do about this?
Update: I forgot to mention that I've added to my index.php right after the opening php tag, this:
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', TRUE);
ini_set('display_startup_errors', TRUE);
And when the error appears (WSOD), the page is still completely blank!
