Post edit screen is nothing but white, completely blank #11412

Describe the bug Installed Gutenberg 4.1.1 into WordPress 4.9.8. As others have reported elsewhere, when trying to edit a post, I get a plain white screen (a completely blank browser tab).

To Reproduce Click on "Edit Post" on the Posts page.

Expected behavior I should be presented with some form of an editing screen. Instead, it is completely blank -- no sidebar, graphics, or anything of any kind.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Additional context I have read and executed previous suggestions to clear my caches or to flush the rewrite rules. These have made no difference for me. Deactivating Gutenberg returns me to normal editing. Activating or deactivating the Classic Editor plugin doesn't seem to matter; the Gutenberg editor doesn't work either way. If there is a plugin conflict, I am not getting an error code to help me isolate it.

I rarely have this happen, though it sporadically occurs (guessing maybe once every 20 editor loads). I've never been able to create reproducible steps. It's always worked to Refresh the page in the browser. This has been for the past several months, always running most up-to-date plugin version.

Not much help - but.......

Thanks. I've tried to refresh, it doesn't make any difference. That it behaves this way in both browsers I use makes me feel like it has to be a conflict within WP itself.

@cjontheschuylkill thanks for writing in! You mentioned that you're not getting an error code. May I double check with you that you were looking at the Console panel in your browser's developer tools and that it was open at the time you tried to load (or reload) a post?

Would it be possible to get a list of your active plugins for reference?

Could you talk a little more about your web server setup? Are you using nginx or Apache or something else? Have you made modifications to any of the configuration files or do you have any tools such as ModSecurity which could be blocking the WordPress API?

designsimply, thanks for the response and the guidance. Sorry for my slow response, have been offline. I'm not a developer or coder and haven't run through these problems in a while, so what I meant was that it wasn't throwing a code at me. Given your advice, I turned on the console and think probably the problem is somehow a missing file or a script problem, as I get this:

JQMIGRATE: Migrate is installed, version 1.4.1 load-scripts.php:9:542 Loading failed for the Githubissues.
