I thought I would post my fix as I haven’t read it yet.
After installing wordpress I got the white screen of death as well and did the following
added the last ?> to my wp-config.php file to fix the php error.
ran word press and logged in
got the blank screen
looked at the url and realised my servers default page is not index.php so i added wp-admin/index.php to endpoint to the the file and clicked return and voila.
I also checked this externally before and after and this worked externally as well.
Have fun.
