White Blank Screen when installing drupal



I am installing Drupal and I am getting white blank screen of death with nothing in it. How do I solve it?



You can look at the error if you enable display_errors (i.e. set to on) in your php.ini and restart apache. This would display the error: "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of X bytes exhausted".

This error is caused by low memory size of a php process on your server where you are installing Drupal.

The solution to white screen of death on drupal is to increase your memory_limit in php.ini to 64M or 128M.

Restart your apache and try again. The problem would go away.
