I recently installed Ubuntu and I'm a php developer. And I'm trying to use Ubuntu for this purpose.

I already installed mysql-server and phpmyadmin and I can already access the localhost. And also If I create some file and write for example echo 'hello';, I'm getting this echo when I access the document that I create.

But I'm trying to access a folder of a website that I developed in windows, and first gave me an error about permissions I changed the permissions, but now I still have problems, when I try to access my website folder I get a blank page.

Do you know why this can be happening?
