Hi all,

First : my server is using nginx_apache custombuild.

Since last week (after updating software via custombuild, like apache, MySQL and PHP, exim, PHPMyAdmin) it seems dynamic pages (like from Joomla/Drupal) seem to return blank pages ...
When I try to load the site I get a blank page with no errors. Html pages are served fine but not php.
php log is not producing any errors and neither is nginx.

Try a random site on the server like www.skoop.be for example.

So my guess is that nginx (as a proxy) is blocking the output of the pages.
nginx -t says everyting is running fine.

Custombuild says I can update nginx 1.6.1 to 1.8.0

Is this rather dangerous (I see some ppl complain about errors after updating) or is there a downgrade/rollback possibility when things fail ?

P.S. : server has been set up by DA staff and only has been updated by using yum and custombuild.

Custombuild usually downloads files, if it fails then you are welcome to download it yourself.
 
Even after doing all the updates, the problem with blank pages, or pages that keep on loading, persist.
Just as an example :

Disable you cache in your browser and try : http://178.79.130.161/~colorima/
If it loads, just try a couple of more times ... the problem WILL appear (just watch the turning circle in your browser).
It's just html and javascript though, nothing else.

I really can't figure out whats wrong with it.
Server is totaly up-to-date.

Any help appreciated.
