New server - blank front-end screen

[chip.maurer]

Hello,

My first post. I'm evaluating zabbix for some system monitoring here at EMC, oops, I mean Dell. Anyway... I have an Ubuntu 16.04 host, and I downloaded the latest (3.2) server. I did the install and configuration and started the server. I made sure that the LAMP stuff was installed. When I try to connect to the HOSTIP/zabbix, I get a blank screen. No error, just a blank screen. I added a phpinfo() to the index.php, and it displays the php info screen when I go to that address, so it's configured correctly. Should I see anything 'zabbix' anywhere in the phpinfo screen? I do have the alias module configured, although I made the change to make /usr/share/zabbix the web service root.

Anyone have any tips?

Missing php packages

Checked the /var/log/apache2/error.log, and found that I was missing a few php packages:

sudo apt-get install php7.0-mbstring
sudo apt-get install php7.0-bcmath
sudo apt-get install php7.0-xml

Seems to be working. I did see some troubling pages from a google search that show that Ubuntu 16.04 and PHP 7.0 have problems.
