I have a perplexing problem I need help resolving: Just switched from
Bluehost to Dreamhost. I coppied all my files over, uploaded the database,
made sure to turn on wildcard domains with the host. Only one problem: the
main front page gives me a blank screen. I can access the admin side, I
can access the rest of the site including posts, pages, archives, bbPress
forums, etc. But the home page just comes up empty. Same thing with
subsites: I can acces the pages and admin of those sites, but the home page
is absent.

Am I missing something here? I've tried making sure the MU plugin was
installed correctly, made sure, flushed rewrite rules, changed themes, etc.
I can't seem to figure out how much of WP is loaded or whats causing this
issue. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Check the apache error log. It maybe because of a plugin.

If you want to display the errors on your site instead you can set
WP_DEBUG to true in wp-config.php. But this is not a good idea from a
security point of view.

to true in wp-config.php. But this is not a good idea from a security point
of view.
Semi-related info:

Depending on your setup, this is a nice way of logging errors:

"Define WP_DEBUG conditionally / for admins only / log errors (append
query arg for all links?)"
<http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/69552/32387>

Essentially:

define('WP_DEBUG', TRUE);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', TRUE);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', FALSE);
@ini_set('display_errors', 0);
$ tail -f wp-content/debug.log

I had a similar problem that I resolved by deleting out the .htaccess file and regenerating it from permalinks.

Found a solution: the server for some reason was skipping over the
index.php file. Had to add the following to fix:
DirectoryIndex index.php
