It looks like Wordpress is missing some files, try re-uploading it.

EDIT: I just got word that this error is from trying to use Softaculous/Fantastico. I recommend you download Wordpress from the official wordpress set www.wordpress.org and install it manually via that method.

Another problem with manual installation

Fix your permissions on your wordpress install; they're all 777. Files should be 644, folders 755 - that will fix the problem.

I checked the permissions on SSH before posting it; that's the most common cause of the 500 internal server error. When it attempts to run a php file with the permission set 777, it denies it because this is a security nightmare - it makes code injection much more accessible, and as such it's blocked.

Setting the folders to 644 and the files to 755 will at least fix that particular cause; there's others that can cause a 500 ISE, but once permissions are fixed, if it's still throwing the error, then it's a different cause and we can locate that one too.
