Troubleshooting the Blank Page After Redirect Issue

Hey there! I get it—blank pages after redirects can be super frustrating, especially when you’ve already ruled out obvious self-redirects in your index.php. Let’s break down the likely culprits since your file only includes auth.php:

Check auth.php for hidden redirect logic: Even if index.php has no redirect code, auth.php might be handling the redirect. Look for header("Location: ...") statements here. A common mistake is forgetting to add exit() or die() right after the redirect—without this, the script might keep running but fail to output anything, resulting in a blank page.
Enable PHP error reporting immediately: Blank pages almost always mean errors are being suppressed. Add these lines at the very top of index.php to see what’s going wrong:
```
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
```
This will show you syntax errors, undefined variables, or "headers already sent" messages that are otherwise hidden.
Check your server error logs: If enabling display errors doesn’t show anything, dive into your server’s error logs (like Apache’s error.log or Nginx’s error.log). These logs capture every PHP error, even if they don’t show up on the frontend.
Fix "headers already sent" issues: Sometimes invisible characters cause this problem—like extra spaces, newlines, or a BOM (byte order mark) at the start of index.php or auth.php. Open both files in a code editor and ensure there’s nothing before the <?php tag. Many editors let you disable BOM when saving files.
Verify the auth.php include path: If PHP can’t find auth.php, it might throw a silent error (if error reporting is off). Add a quick check after the include:
```
$authFile = 'auth.php';
if (!file_exists($authFile)) {
    echo "Error: $authFile not found!";
    exit;
}
include $authFile;
```
You can also try using an absolute path (e.g., include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/path/to/auth.php';) to rule out path issues.
