Laravel blank white screen

I have also one more option why blank page issue may occur. If you are on production mode and if you cached your config files by php artisan (config:cache), try to delete cache file executing:

php artisan config:clear

or delete it manualy (bootstrap/cache/config.php)

Running this command solved it for me:

php artisan view:clear

I guess a blank error page was some how cached. Had to clear the caches.

Facing the blank screen in Laravel 5.8. Every thing seems fine with both storage and bootstrap folder given 777 rights. On

php artisan cache:clear

It shows the problem it was the White spaces in App Name of .env file

In general if Laravel showing you white page without error first thing looking in the .evn file for error my wrong was.

The problem was in .env file in APP_NAME

Just i replaced

APP_NAME=My Project Name 

to

APP_NAME="My Project Name"

It took me almost 2 hour to solve this problem. These are reasons find out in answers:

• Remove space in .env file
• Rewrite .htaccess
• chmod 777 storage / bootstrap folder
• Remove vendor folder and run composer install again
• Restart apache/nginx server
• php artisan view:clear
• php artisan cache:clear
• php artisan route:clear

I tried everything but it still doesn't working.

Turn out the default port for apache/nginx server is not PORT 80. When you installed webpack, it may be changed because of corrupting with Skype or system services. So instead of access to yoursite.test on localhost, you must use yoursite.test:85 which 85 is the default PORT of apache/nginx server.

In my case , I have installed laravel many times, and I am sure that the folder write permission has been correctly given.

Like most of the answers above :

sudo chmod 777 -R storage bootstrap

The mistake is that my nginx configuration comes from the official documentation.

I only modified the domain name after copying ，then I got a blank page. I tried restarting nginx and php-fpm,but not work for me.

Finally, I added this line configuration to solve the problem.

location ~ \.php$ {

    # same as documentation ...

    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}

I hope I can help others.

Blank screen also happens when your Laravel app tries to display too much information and PHP limits kick in (for example displaying tens of thousands of database records on a single page). The worst part is, you won't see any errors in the Laravel logs. You probably won't see any errors in the PHP FPM logs as well. You might find errors in your http server logs, for example nginx throws something like FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP message: PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of XXX bytes exhausted.

Short tip: add ->limit(1000) where 1000 is your limit, on your query object.

Strange for me, but in my case I had to clear the laravel's cache to solve the issue.

I also faced same issue after doing composer update

I tried installing composer required monolog/monolog too but didn't work.

Then I removed the /vendor directory and ran composer install and worked as per normal.

basically it must have reverted my monolog and other stable packages version back to previous. so better not to composer update

what I noticed comparing both the /vendor folders and found those classes files under /vendor/monolog/monolog/src/Handler were missing after composer updated.

use this .htaccess to solve

Options +ExecCGI
addhandler x-httpd-php5-cgi .php
Options -MultiViews
DirectoryIndex index.php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
    Options -MultiViews -Indexes
</IfModule>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Handle Authorization Header
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} .
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
# Redirect Trailing Slashes If Not A Folder...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)/$
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301]
# Handle Front Controller...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
#RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

There might be a lot of reasons behind the blank screen without errors. I have faced this problem many times whenever I want to upload laravel project in shared hosting.

Reason: Incorrect PHP Version

In my case, issue was because of incorrect php version. I had php 7.1 version in local computer where as in shared hosting cpanel, there was php 5.6 version. Switching up the version from 5.6 to 7.1 worked for me.

You can change php version in cpanel from multiphp manager available in cpanel home page.

Sometimes in route.php you may have

Route::get('/{id}', 'Controller@show'..

written before

Route::get('/add', 'Controller@add'..

It can be empty method Controller::show() when you begin to develop your controller from scratch. In this case you will get empty blank page when requesting /add url. It happens because the request was handled by /{id} route, and its method returns nothing.

Just try to place /add route before /{id}

Make sure that there are no typos in your .env file. This was the cause of a blank screen with me.

Nothing got logged to screen nor logfiles or nginx logs. Just a blank screen.

I have same issue. I already change chmod folder for Storage folder. fill database settings in .env, but didn't fix the problem. I used Laravel 5.5 and I used PHP 5.6, to fix it I went to (cpanel->PHP Selector) and I changed to PHP 7.1 And the issue is done.

On normal cases errors should be logged Unless

Script can't write to log file

• check it's path
• permissions

Or error occurred on higher level check app server logs like Appache || Nginx

Or it's resources limits Like PHP ini settings

memory_limit
max_input_time
max_execution_time

Or OS limit's and so on

In addition to Permission problems in storage and cache folder and php version issues, there could be another reasons to display blank page without any error message.

For example, I had a redeclare error message without any log and with blank white page. There was a conflict between my own helper function and a vendor function.

I suggest as a starting point, run artisan commands. for example:

php artisan cache:clear

If there was a problem, it will prompted in terminal and you've got a Clue and you can google for the solution.

I hit this problem when I tried to run a Laravel 5.8 app on my server, uploading from local development using Vagrant Homestead. After a while I figured out that the dev subdomain on the live server I was running was somehow set to PHP 5.6.

cPanel > MultiPHP Manager > Set to PHP 7.2

fixed this for me. Hope this might help someone.

in my case, the BLANK WHITE SCREEN issue was as simple as a typo or wrong character on the env file. I was implementing socialite, so when I was setting up the .env credentials for Google+ like this:

G+_CLIENT_ID = Your G+ Client ID
G+_CLIENT_SECRET = Your G+ Client secret
G+_REDIRECT = 'http://localhost:8000/callback/google'

But, the .env file can't use the '+' sign, so I have to make this correction:

GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID = Your G+ Client ID
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET = Your G+ Client secret
GOOGLE_REDIRECT = 'http://localhost:8000/callback/google'

I hope this help you find a dumb error...
