Nov 5, 2019 at 16:47 comment added Patrice Poliquin Based on what Sally CJ wrote, you could just try a fresh WordPress installation in an other folder to test if your environment can run this new WordPress. If it does, then the problem might comes from your download.

Nov 5, 2019 at 0:54 comment added sgspragg No, I’ve not tried regenerating the security keys yet, so thanks for that. I will try that first in the morning before going through the files. I’ll update here if I find the solution. Thanks all for your input
Nov 5, 2019 at 0:15 comment added Sally CJ It could happen, although things like that should make PHP put the error in the logs. But you should just check the files for any unwanted characters which the OS may have added during the download.. Have you tried re-generating the security keys?

Nov 5, 2019 at 0:03 comment added sgspragg Hi, I’ve already got rid of the .htaccess files and the server log is showing nothing either. I’ve been doing some extensive searching on this and wondering whether there might be some white space before one of the opening <?php tags?
Nov 4, 2019 at 23:39 comment added Sally CJ Have you check the server logs? (Not the debug.log or error_log file) How about temporarily rename the .htaccess file?
Nov 4, 2019 at 21:15 comment added sgspragg The test index.html is working fine, never experienced anything like this before
Nov 4, 2019 at 20:53 comment added Patrice Poliquin Ih you are having a white screen on the website, have you tried to created a simple index.html at the root of your local server just to test if you manage to see it? If you still get a white screen then it might not be your WordPress the problem but a missconfiguration of your local server.
