Server error 500
« on: October 30, 2008, 05:48:33 AM »
Hello,

I've just downloaded the script from your website and I wanted to install it. However I get the following error message:

Server error!

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script.

Error 500


I searched your forum, but I wasn't able to find any relative answers. I use apache 2.2, php 5.2.6 and windows OS.

Thanks

Snippet from RC Troubleshooting Guide:

Quote

Troubleshooting¶
500 Internal Server Error::

This is a very common problem. The likely cause is AllowOverride Apache directive is in effect. Try to comment all the lines in .htaccess in the document root and then uncomment one line at a time to find which directives in .htaccess cause the error. If these directives protect some critical files from downloading, ask your hoster or administrator to give you more AllowOverride rights or include the problem directives from .htaccess file into administrator maintained configuration file.
Regards,
Rosali

Hello,

Thanks for help... I had to uncomment (in my httpd-vhosts.conf):
 AllowOverride FileInfo Options

Will install the script now :)
