Internal Server Error 500- wordpress

[abgtdtmx]

Hi,
I've spent most of today trying to get my website to work. I have migrated a local Xampp install of wordpress online to abgtdtm.x10host.com but i cannot seem to get it working. I've tried several times using different methods (including using a one-click install and then transferring my local files online) and made sure to do everything correctly according to every tutorial i could find.

It all seems fine until i upload my local install of wordpress to the file server, and i get this internal server error. I also cannot locate any error logs. For some reason the url redirects to abgtdtm.x10host.com/wordpress.
I have changed the wp-config file to match the database and i believe i have changed every mention of local host (from my local install) in the database.

I'm not sure if it could be something to do with my wordpress install (maybe a plugin or the htaccess messing it up) or the way i've set it up. I've tried renaming the htaccess file but there is no change.

Sorry if this doesn't make a lot of sense, it's late at night where i live and i have been working on this most of the day.

Any help would be appreciated,
thank you.

Hi,

You are seeing the 500 Internal Server Error because your .htaccess file contains rewrite rules that are creating an infinite loop.

To fix this, please:
1) Edit your .htaccess file in cPanel File Manager, and change instances of /wordpress/ to just /
2) Change your WordPress Site URL to the correct value by following this guide, since it currently ends in /wordpress/

Thank you,
