Blank page after PHPMyAdmin Installation (Ubuntu, Nginx, HHVM, MariaDB)

Posted on January 14, 2015

Hello,

I have started a new droplet with Ubuntu 14.04, installed Nginx, installed MariaDB, installed HHVM. All confirmed to work at this point.

Then I installed PHPMyAdmin, did the symbolic link and was able to login with root and password. But the next page is blank.

I have no errors in my Nginx log. What did I do wrong?

I tried this issue with no resolution. any ideas why I still face this problem?

That would explain alot… :) Thanks for the details!

There are some issues with HHVM and Mysqli (the PHP lib used by PHPMyAdmin to connect to MySql). I’ve seen some varying reports of people getting this to work. Support might potentially be better in the nightly builds.
