Problems changing landing tabs

    I see that this is a well trodden topic, however, I could not find a solution to my particular problem in the old posts. I am am trying to change the default landing tabs for groups and profiles. This is my entire bp-custom.php

    <?php
// hacks and mods will go here

define( 'BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT', 'profile' ); 
define( 'BP_GROUPS_DEFAULT_EXTENSION', 'forum' );

?>

    It succeeds in changing the default tabs to profile for profiles and forum for groups, however, it creates problems when any user tries to e.g. change profile data or to log out. At this point the only a white screen will appear in the browser. Deleting the file restores normal functinality with regard to these functions. What may I be doing wrong? Is there an alternative method to achieve what I want?

    I have the most recent versions of BP and WP. My plugins:

    BAW Easy Invitation Codes
    bbPress
    BuddyPress Auto Group Join
    BuddyPress Group Email Subscription
    Child Theme Configurator
    Coming Soon
    Dashboard Commander
    GD bbPress Attachments
    Invite Anyone
    Role Scoper
    SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam
    Widgets on Pages
    WordPress Importer

    I have tried to deavtivate all the plugins except Buddypress, but the problem still persists. I could really need some help with this, as I have put a lot of work into this site, and this issue is preventing from doing anything furher, and a deadline is looming.

    ah. I turned on the php error messages, and got this one when I tried to edit a profile (one of the things which gives the white screen of death after enabling the landing instructions).

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /customers/8/9/1/gamephilosophy.org/httpd.www/wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:14) in /customers/8/9/1/gamephilosophy.org/httpd.www/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 896

    Anyone that might know what this means?
