I have a login script which is working fine on the production server hosted on shared hosting (Windows8 server).
The same script when tried on the local server(not connected to internet) which is WindowsXP and UniServ (like XAMPP OR WAMP). It just gives a blank screen.
So I tried testing a few scripts if there is any issue in Apache / Mysql / PHP. All 3 are working fine on Uniserv.
I tried checking the configuration for session path, all that is fine. Not sure what else needs to be checked if the same files have to work on local server. Need help.
Please check the below login script:
<?php // accesscontrol.php
include_once 'common.php';
include_once 'db2.php';
session_start();
$uid = isset($_POST['uid']) ? $_POST['uid'] : $_SESSION['uid'];
$pwd = isset($_POST['pwd']) ? $_POST['pwd'] : $_SESSION['pwd'];
if(!isset($uid)) {
?>
