Okfalls, can u post your logs?
Thank you all. Thank you itoube for the link, it gave me more idea on de-activating plugins.
.
If anyone has trouble wit the sql check the following:
SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = 'active_plugins';
Yes the problem was with a plugin – Postie
I had kept this one enabled all the time. When I again re-checked with my local installation I found the issue.
I apologize for being hasty 
Well, it works cool now. 
Steps followed:
- Disabled all plugins (inlcuding Postie)
- Installed Bbpress
- Applied bbpress theme
- Enabled (postie)
Thank you all for your time..
Try changing the theme to Kubrick and see if you still get the white screen, then it might be a theme related issue.
I had this one installed by Andrew over at the premium site some time ago:
/*
Plugin Name: WordPress MU Domain Mapping
Plugin URI: http://ocaoimh.ie/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/
Description: Map any blog on a WordPress MU website to another domain.
Version: 0.4.3
Author: Donncha O Caoimh
Author URI: http://ocaoimh.ie/
*/
domain mapping works everywhere, just not on buddypress pages.
Well.. it works, but the problem is that buddypress is picking up the subdomain instead of the mapped domain in all of the activity stream, profile, etc… links.
If I am on any page not belonging to buddypress, then the url’s are correctly pointing to the mapped domain.
‘deactivating’ a plugin doesn’t always quite cut it. It’s worth completely removing plugins from the plugin folder (delete, move elsewhere) and then add them back in one by one to activate.
Did you read the error logs?
Hello again.. all plugins deactivated went to activate ? and the “white screen again” renamed bp-loader.php and I got the site back. I am at a loss on what to do next.

Try this plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/oembed-provider/
It seems to only work for images though. Contact the plugin author to ask for video support.
You’d also need to add your site to WP’s oEmbed whitelist, read this:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds#How_Can_I_Add_Support_For_More_Websites.3F
I installed the group plugin, and then added another member to a public group. I even bumped the member to a moderator.
That part worked perfectly, but there is one small issue.
On the groups activity page, it says user ‘x’ joined the group. The ‘x’ is the proper name, however just to the left of the username is my avatar, and not his.
example:
http://shawngaffney.anointed.net/groups/public-test-group/
first activity says ‘steve’ joined, yet the avatar is my avatar, not his, and the avatar also links to my account not his. That will make it a bit confusing to users?
**cross posted this on the wordpress.org download page forum as well**
Sounds good. I’ll hold off a little longer I was losing faith and perfectly happy launching with a simple WordPress plugin for now. But an integrated solution would be better of course. That said… I will really need recurring events… so who knows… I may STILL end up going with a WP plugin for the time being. Then maybe switch to bp-events in 2011.
I’m going to paraphrase a line out of the iPhone ads:
“There’s a plugin for that!”
Check out this plugin by Brajesh Singh:
http://www.thinkinginwordpress.com/2009/10/autoactivate-users-and-blogs-at-buddypress-signup/
I think it needs to be updated for BP 1.2 though.
It installs like a plugin but will take over your site theme as you need to active the BP theme to get the functionality. If you want to use your own theme please read this.
https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
Basically, Yes. Buddypress is plugin for an existing WordPress install. You can’t just install it by itself in a sub-folder. Also, Buddypress is not like a “blog posts” page that you can assign somewhere on your site. You can’t fit it into a couple pages. It’s an entire social networking platform. It will add groups, profiles, messaging, activity, and more to your site.
hello ladies and gentleman, that’s me again…
I was working really hard to solve this problem with sidebar and i think i found the solution. But i still have no clue how to to move this photos on the left side just few cm to the right?
Here is style css of my wordpress theme with added bp style css (starts at line 2055)…
http://wklej.org/id/290756/
Can you please give my some small hint?
this may help a bit although it doesn’t give a clear answer to the problem apart from pointing the finger at an outdated plugin –> http://alwayswordpress.com/blogging/the-menacing-white-screen-of-death-with-wordpress
Then you may probably have to follow versluis’s advice above… that is to activate your other plugins one by one to find the culprit
Hi… Good idea. I will ask tech for the log file and go from there. This is annoying to say the least.. Oh, I also had no problem installing BP on another WP site with the same ISP.. weird or what!!!

@xp02ed
I’ve tracked down the root of the problem (at least in my case), it’s most likely that you server clocks are out of sync (timezones) between your system, php and mysql.
(This explanation might be wrong with exactly where times are pulled from, but is correct as to the fact that they’re pulled from different places!)
The bit that checks recently online users looks at the last activity entry in user_meta and checks for users logged in within the past 5 minutes. However, last_activity user meta is logged by wordpress using PHP gmdate, and when you search for the last activity in this widget, it uses MYSQL’s NOW() function. If your times are out of sync a user with last activity of <5 minutes will never happen.
Example:
In my local server, the times of last activity are being logged as GMT by WP (PHP). However, I’m in CET and mysql takes it’s timezone from the system (windows), so everyone no matter what was last “seen” by WP and BP at least an hour ago.
See below for more info on setting MySQL timezones
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/time-zone-support.html
I too could install it in my local system.
Did you try getting server logs from your hosting provider?
I got mine after requesting it from the tech support.
An addendum to my other post. I just installed BP on my local machine with no trouble. What could be going wrong with my hosting service I wonder?
Hi.. For what it is worth I had/am having the same trouble. I deleted BP files and have not bothered since. I never did get an answer that helped me with the problem…
Further to my above post
I installed buddypress v1.2.1 as a plugin to my wordpress v2.9.2 install wordpress was and is working fine on my server, this is running on windows home servers own internal server which is IIS 6 I think, my hp mediasmart server is running PHP v5.2.10.
The problem I am having is with the nav bar and links that buddypress adds to wordpress, all links goto the page that says The page cannot be found.
I have setup wamp on my desktop pc, on this i installed wordpress & buddypress and both work fine and as they should do, but installing buddypress to my wordpress install on my hp mediasmart server has problems it seems.
Any help on this will be greatfully received

Hi versluis,
Thank you for the reply. I couldn’t log on after activation, so I deleted the /buddypress/ directory.
(Later I found out just renaming bp-loader.php was enough)
I have all my plugins deactivated, but activating buddypress again displays the white screen.
Any other ideas?
But don’t you think this has something to do with the tables of BP not being created during the initial activation?
Thank you again.
@MrMaz I notice a bug under WordPress single install 2.9.2 with BP1.2.1 when the plugin is activated everything look to be fine if your role is set as administrator but if you are login as regular member and try to see someone member pages your are getting a blank page. I had to deactivate the plugin. Any idea?
