error_reporting( E_ALL );

2. enable debug in global configuration and set the error_report to development

but I'm still getting blank pages. still not yet find the error Thank you in advanced

Answer 1

Go to Global Configuration in Admin panel and Server Tab and there do Error Reporting to Maximum .

Doing this setting you will be able to view the error you are getting.

Global Configuration-> Server-> Error Reporting -> Maximum

Answer 2

Try with adding your view name.

http://www.whizzrd.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_osservicesbooking&view=osservicesbookings

Also check filename and component names if it seems differ or capital.

Answer 3

My problem was that I had typed defined('__JEXEC') or die (two underlines before JEXEC) and it is supposed to be defined('_JEXEC') or die and as I had not set a message for die it basically just displayed a blank page with nothing. Took me a couple of hours to figure it out. Best thing I did was to start adding a different message in my die statements and then it will display the die message of the page with errors.
