[pmwiki-users] Blank Page Appears After Setting Password

[Felicia]

I'm going to apologize in advance, as I've found this
question in the archives and in frequently asked
questions, but I can't seem to find an answer.

The problem:
I have set "read" and "edit" passwords for a group.  When
accessing the group, I get a password prompt and enter the
password.  The page that loads is completely blank.

My setup:
PmWiki: pmwiki-2.1.27
System: NetBSD 4.0
PHP: 5.2.6
Webserver: Apache-2.2.9

What I have tried:
All my other pages load normally.  This happens both when
I set the password via the attr form and when I set it in
the group config file.  All the files in the wiki.d
directory are set to 777 except:
-rw-rw-r--   .flock
-rw-rw-r--   .htaccess
-rw-rw-r--   .lastmod

All I have to do to make the page load correctly is remove
the password lines from the config file.
Those lines are:
$DefaultPasswords['read'] = crypt('password');
$DefaultPasswords['edit'] = crypt('password');

I get a blank page whether or not I enter the correct
password.


Thanks in advance for your help. -- Felicia
