Which version of IC, perl, mysql?

type perl --version and tell me what the first line is in the output.

What is the link for that?  double check that it is correct.

Usually this will be accompanied by a 500 server error, not a blank page.

Did you check both the catalog error.log and the main Interchange error.log?

So this is not a new installation?  IC 5.4 has dropped foundation and

The most likely explanation is that you're missing an important perl 
module, but will know better with more of the info requested above. 
Feel free to drop into irc.icdevgroup.org #interchange if you want some
