Description
With the update as of yesterday I'm trying again to install Friendica via Docker. I pruned the docker system and volumes prior, so it should be a clean install.
I'm using the default image with Apache, and the example docker-compose script, with the only changes made that I have a password entered and the admin email.
```
services:
db:
image: mariadb
restart: always
volumes:
- db:/var/lib/mysql
environment:
- MYSQL_USER=friendica
- MYSQL_PASSWORD=mypASS1
- MYSQL_DATABASE=friendica
- MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=yes
app:
image: friendica
restart: always
volumes:
- friendica:/var/www/html
ports:
- "8080:80"
environment:
- MYSQL_HOST=db
- MYSQL_USER=friendica
- MYSQL_PASSWORD=mypASS1
- MYSQL_DATABASE=friendica
- FRIENDICA_ADMIN_MAIL=comradeferret@xxxxx.com
depends_on:
- db
volumes:
db:
friendica:
```
I get to the point in the setup where it asks for my admin email, which I enter and submit, and then get only a blank page.
```

Container logs are nothing interesting, just GET requests. Running off of Debian, firewall is down for the sake of just getting this to work.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the blank page with the example docker-compose configuration and inspect the app and database container output after submitting the admin email. Done means identifying the failing installation path and verifying that setup completes without returning a blank response.
