It appears I have run into the same problem again as I had last year. When attempting to launch into Bloom I am getting only a blank screen. It appears that Bloom tries to connect twice to my database, which is 3.5.14. Anyone else experienced this and has an idea on how to resolve it? Last time a restart of my machine somehow fixed, this time it did not work. I appreciate any help.
I believe I simply re-installed Bloom only, which solved the problem. Still don’t know why, but was relieved when it was resolved. Hope this will work for you as well.
