Had the same problem on a fully updated system; went around with it for
hours.

Watched the logs with tail -f, no error messages. PHP5/apache2/mysql
connections were all working. No firewall in the way, doublechecked
permissions on directories. Even purged everything involved with Apache,
php5, and moodle, including dependencies, several times (kept mysql
though, as the previous testing suggested the problem was not with
that). Continued to get a blank page at http://localhost/moodle/admin as
well as .../admin/index.php (with a 200 http code), while if I put up a
simple html index page at .../admin/index.html, it *would* show (after I
adjusted the conf files so that html was a recognized index file
extension).

So no luck ... until I:

1) purged everything (including dependencies) connected to apache2, php5, and 
moodle;
2) used Adept Manager instead of aptitude; and
3) Used mysql passwords containing only alphanumeric characters (no 
punctuation-type stuff).

Bam. Success on first try. Running great now.
