Thanks to those already responded (Thomas and Michal) suggesting to look
in the apache and owncloud logs.
a) The apache error log shows absolutley nothing added when
accessing/submitting the owncloud initialisation page, but perhaps I
need to enable a higher level of error logging here???
The apache access log shows just the various GETs and one POST -
referring to /owncloud/index.php.
b) There is nothing that looks like a log file created by owncloud (I
believe it should end up in the owncloud/data sub-directory - /*which
remains empty.*/ )
By the way, the apache error-log shows the following whenever my apache
daemon starts:
... [notice] Apache/2.2.21 (FreeBSD) mod_ssl/2.2.21 OpenSSL/0.9.8n
DAV/2 PHP/5.3.8 with Suhosin-Patch configured -- resuming normal operations
Any other ideas?

Dear list
I have tried several times to configure owncloud (v2 and v3) on my
FreeBSD server at home, but always get stuck at the very same point.
I should like some guidance on how to troubleshoot the process, if
anyone here can assist. I can't find my specific problem in any of the
existing forum/mail postings...
In simple terms, having installed owncloud either from FreeBSD ports
or 'manually' from the binary and GIT repository, I am able to access
the first config page where the admin credentials are requested and
type of DB backend, I click submit and then... nothing.
I have also tried different browsers (IE 7, 8, Google Crome, Firefox)
in case it was a client issue.
Always the same observed result, whether SQLIte or MySQL (after first
configuring the MySQL user) is chosen.
My environment:
FreeBSD 8.1 RELEASE
Apache 2.2
SQLite 3.7.9 & MySQL 5.1
<All the php modules listed on the owncloud requisites page - v5.3.8)>
My first question is: /*How do you debug the php scripts that are run?*/
The closest I've gotten to tracking down the problem is somewhere in
the MDB2/Driver sections, but that was a somewhat blind goose-chase
through the php code, trying to run each script in the chain one at a
time.
Any ideas? I've read of others who are succesfully running OC on
FreeBSD, or at least getting beyond this very first hurdle.
