-The following item is VERY important, hence it's typeface in '''BOLD''' CAPITAL letters.  If the appropirate additional time zone module is not installed it can cause a completely invisible error (IE, no error in Apache, Lighttpd, or PHP logs).  IE, it only displays a blank page.  Even using a command line instance of PHP will not reveal the error.  This line in the /phpMyAdmin/libraries/classes/Core.php file: date_default_timezone_set(@date_default_timezone_get()); is the source of the issue (Note, this is not the fault of phyMyAdmin, but it would be nice if they wrote a bit of code to address this situation).  The error message that can be coaxed out of Lighttpd by taking that line of code and placing it in a file by itself is: Timezone database is corrupt – this should ''never'' happen! (thanks to this site for a key bit of information on that issue: https://e3fi389.wordpress.com/2014/12/07/timezone-database-is-corrupt-date-error-in-openwrt/)

 **pm.max_spare_servers = 6
 **If MIN and MAX aren't set appropriately, this error will occur: ALERT: [pool www] pm.start_servers(5) must not be less than pm.min_spare_servers(1) and not greater than pm.max_spare_servers(3)
+*Make sure bzip2 is installed or the myAdminPHP will complain.
+*PHP.ini: Add this line: extension=mysql.so
 *To diagnose any issues when attempting to access the phpMyAdmin setup this will display the error message (look for the line that says WarnMissingExtension to spot missing modules): php-cli /usr/share/apache2/htdocs/phpMyAdmin/setup/index.php
+*One final note on Blank Page errors: Watch out for any minor typos in the config.inc.php file like a missing double quote ( " ) or single quote ( ' ) / AKA apostrophe.  It will cause a 'blank page error', with nothing in the PHP, Apache, or other error logs.
