I had the other problem after upgrading my Wordpress to 2.5: blog pages were fine, but admin pages were blank.

The fix was incredibly simple though:

Nicely done. Been searching forums and Google for 2 days and no one suggested disabling plugins. Turned out my “ShiftThis.net | Swift SMTP” plugin was causing the issue.

Thanks for doing the “heavy-lifting” and sharing!

For PHP errors, I find the easiest way to trouble-shoot when developing a plugin is to make a direct HTTP request for the file. eg
domain.com/blog_dir/wp-content/plugins/pluginfile.php
This way will show syntax errors and other PHP error messages.
When the file is OK PHP-wise, you will then see errors like
[WordPress-function name here] not found.
For incompatibility problems though, deactivating and reactivating is the best way, especially now that WordPress “sand boxes” and will show a “could not be activated” message.
And don’t learn the hard way. Back-up, back-up, back-up!
