There are two basic problems I anticipate: one, the vertex arrays might not be working correctly; two, the vertex shader might not be working correctly. In cases like this where you just don't know, you need to separate it until you reduce it to one or the other. So, for example, do you see your triangle when not using a shader? The problem would then most likely be in the matrix multiplication or uniform passing. Did you still not see the triangle? Then possibly the issue is with your vertex arrays.
