My Joomla component not displaying anything

Question

I have build my own component. I know very well about these stuff but all of sudden I wonder that the joomla request to my custom component is not displaying anything. Its displaying blank page. See this: http://designsoft.bestplacestestserver.com/index.php?option=com_marketplacemanager

Here is the very initial code of 'marketplacemanager.php' file of component where the request is not arriving. Don't know why.

Code - marketplacemanager.php

defined('_JEXEC') or die;

jimport('joomla.application.component.helper');

echo 'aa'; exit; // should have something displayed as here

check your error log, and also check [tutorial how to create mvc component in Joomla](http://docs.joomla.org/Developing_a_Model-View-Controller_Component/2.5) — Marko D, Mar 19 '13 at 16:03

Go to global configuration. On the server tab turn error reporting to development. Reload the page. Most likely you will now see the error.

Thank you for the assistance. I have sorted out the problem. Actually there was an unknown MVC problem. I created new component and it worked correctly :) – Nah Mar 26 '13 at 06:11

Try this, replace the first line of your code with:

defined('_JEXEC') or die('why is blank?');

If still does not show anything it means displaying errors on your server is locked, so checking the error log would be the only option.

No actually nothing was working:) Even the first line was not being displayed. I checked the naming conventions and every thing was ok. But actually where was some MVC naming problem or something else. I just created new component and it worked correctly. I was little careful this time and it worked :) Thank you for all your assistance :) – Nah Mar 26 '13 at 06:12

The problem has been resolved. Actually MVC naming pattern or something else was wrong. I didn't properly renamed my existing component that I was reusing.
