title: laravel 4 blank page on live server - 500 error
body: <p>My laravel site is working correctly on my local apache server and WAS working correctly on my remote live/development server. I carried out an ftp sync last night and now all I can get is a blank white page.</p>
  
  <p>In the console I can see an error status 500 internal server error</p>
  
  <p>I've read similar posts on this suggesting folder permissions and using filezilla I have set the permissions on all files and folders to 777 - I've also tried 775.</p>
  
  <p>I've deleted all the remote files and re-uploaded them (and set permissions again).</p>
  
  <p>I've checked the .htaccess settings (which are standard)</p>
  
  <p>No log files are being created </p>
  
  <p>I'm not sure what I can check next - can anyone help please</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
