Hi Paul,

you are right,  just blank pages. I reinstalled the whole thing and 
still get blank pages.

On the commandline i get:
C:\>which php.exe
D:\Programme\Xitami\php.exe

It's in the right place. My ini-file is untouched;
the permissions of php.exe are set to full access for everybody.

In defaults.cfg i see:
[Filter]
    .php=php.exe

In my cgierr.log i see:
PHP:  Error parsing C:\WINNT\php.ini on line 314

In my untouched ini these are the lines 313-314:

; Windows: "\path1;\path2"
;include_path = ".;c:\php\includes"

So, i assume this is the mistake. I played around with the two 
variables with no result yet.

Regards,  Peter
