install brings up blank page

confused
After entering the information in the installation screen; clicking Install just brings up a blank page. Where would I look for error messages to figure out what went wrong?

All the permissions were corrected as requested by the installation.
I can connect to mysql via command line using the user/password/database assigned to geeklog.

Thanks,
Mike

Hmm, that's unusual.

Open the install script, public_html/admin/index.php. Near the start of the file (after the copyright header, you'll find)
Text Formatted Code
// this should help expose parse errors even when
// display_errors is set to Off in php.ini
if (function_exists('ini_set')) {
    ini_set('display_errors', '1');
}
error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE | E_COMPILE_ERROR);

Try replacing the last of those lines with error_reporting(E_ALL);

bye, Dirk
