After successful install, blank screen on front page. No preview

also no plugins, no added themes. default settings. reinstalled it 3-4 times now. No idea what the cause is. Index.php is blank, when I try to preview, I see the sidebar on the left, but everything else is blank. When I try to view the source code for the main page, it is also blank. No source code what so ever.

Also confirmed that php is indeed running.

Hi,
Please add these lines of codes in your index.php file, and let’s see if it works.

<?php
define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’,true);
/** this will load wordpress templates **/
require (‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
?>

hey, I had this same problem the first time I installed wordpress. Here’s what I did:
I went to the Appearance>themes and selected a different theme from the already activated one and activated it. And wa-la its showing the webpage. You can not install you own custom themes etcc.. WordPress just needs a little boost sometimes.

Hello, find out how much memory are you using? If you increase your memory to 64mb or more you might fix this problem.
