 After several hours of debugging a white screen, after moving a wordpress
 multisite that worked on my MAMP, to a LAMP install online, one simple
 change triggered the fix...

 Child themes specify a 'template' in style.css (e.g. 'canvas') - This
 appears to be case-sensitive, as it only worked on LAMP when lower case,
 even though the parent theme title is 'Canvas' - i.e. capitalised.

 Surely there should be a strtolower() check in the core to prevent this
 issue arising? Or otherwise, some sort of error / alert?
