internal error 500 wordpress

[cestlaplusmimi38]

Hello,
I tried to install wordpress and and when i launch http://happosai-en-formation.x10.mx/wp-admin/ i have 500 error.

- I tried to put my folders in "www" then i tried in "public_html" >> the same
- I tried every combinations in config.php file >> the same or sometimes only 404, sometimes 500 error sometimes both
- I tried to change "fr_FR" into "default" in config.php >> the same.
- i tried to modify .htaccess. with "AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php", a popup for downloading the file "install.php" appeared. With the 2 lines "AddType x-mapp-php5 .php AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php" error message becomes Error: PHP is not running & ' . __('Insufficient Requirements') . '
With the code "
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress" >> Internal access error.
I erased wordpress folder and reinstalled it some times. Then i used "auto intall" with softaculous and fantistico >> Internal access error

I read on forums that it can be related to php version : they advise to change php version into 2. I don't know how to do ?
Or may be i failed in filling wp-config ?? Can you help me, i have no idea anymore..
---

thank you very much,

happosai

Hello,

Wordpress usually just works out of the box. If you're having serious difficulty I offer a script installation service here: http://x10hosting.com/forums/marketplace/155202-50-credits-script-installation-services.html

As a student for a personal project, i'd prefer a free solution...

Hello,

Is the htaccess file you posted earlier the one from the wordpress root directory?
Would you mind posting it again in full, if you didn't do before.
You'll need to tick the box to view dotfiles if using cPanel file manager.

Actually, the htaccess (located in root directory) was created but empty when i installed wp, so i tried to add lines i founded in threads -_-

1st trial :
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php
>> a popup for downloading the file "install.php" appeared (??)

2nd trial :
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php
>> Error: PHP is not running & ' . __('Insufficient Requirements') . '

3rd trial :
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
>> internal access error, the same if i keep this file empty.

To be honest, i don't understand the content of these codes, i just tried it because i didn't know what to do. WP is said so easy to install and i can't do it on server... I feel completely useless-_-. Of course, it runs perfectly in local.

First, i uploaded wp folder via ftp, then i tried "fantastico" & "softaculous". Anyway, i changed .htaccess from my ftp client.

Now, i checked " file manager". I ticked the box for viewing hidden files. WP files are in root directory (public html), with htaccess file. I changed permissions into 775. No more results

http://happosai-en-formation.x10.mx/wp-admin/install.php
I let "AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php" in htaccess. So a popup for downloading the file "install.php" appears...

Thank you for your help im completely lost. And sorry for my bad english, i didnt find any response on french forums.

Hello,

Rename the htaccess file to htaccess.txt, then try. With htaccess, if in doubt, don't have one at all. Then try.

.htaccess.txt >>

Hello,

What are the permissions of the actual public_html folder?

 

[cestlaplusmimi38]

Hello,

775 (apply to every folders & files).

I don't know if it can be useful, but i work on firefox 4.0 and mac os 10.6.6.

 

[stpvoice]

Hello,

Folders must be 755, files 644. Please try that.

 

[cestlaplusmimi38]
