Blank admin page

[jtnews +]

I had this problem on another install here: Admin Section blank and I'm running into it again with an install at our new site at www.motseattle.com/administration.
This is a fresh install, nothing in the database as of yet, no modules added or anything as of yet, but when I go to the admin login page I get a blank screen. We're running PHP version 5.3.3-7+squeeze1 so the I tried adding the debug script to the params file but still get a blank page. View source shows up empty as well, by the way. I've also tried re-uploading the admin section twice and the entire package once.
Last time there wasn't really a solution - I just tried it again a couple days later and it worked - so it may be something on the host side but is there possibly some script that needs to be added or something extra enabled that isn't necessarily a part of the package but still needs to be on the server?

Have you tried deleting the key.php file in the license folder? (try it but keep a copy).

Have you emptied all of the templates_c folder contents?

Have you emptied the cache folder if it contains stuff?

What does your hosting provider say?

No dice on any of these suggestions. The license folder didn't have a key.php file inside. Could that be a clue? The error reporting page appears outdated, by the way. The first uncommented line in the folder is a conditional.

if (defined('E_DEPRECATED'))
{
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_WARNING & ~E_DEPRECATED);
}
else
{
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_WARNING);
}
session_start();

Change your administration/includes/params.php file to look like thid and it should display the errors you are getting:

PHP Code:

/*
if (defined('E_DEPRECATED'))
{
    error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_WARNING & ~E_DEPRECATED);
}
else
{
    error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_WARNING);
}
*/
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', true);

No dice. Still blank.

Could you submit a support ticket with your ftp details please?

Was there a resolution to this? I just downloaded 4.2.3 and installed with a success note - having the same issue.
