500 error on website

Hi,

I'm trying to install XOOPS2 (CMS) on my website (dan.pantdevil.com).

I've set up all the correct databases, users for mySQL etc. I've run the install and it says it has installed everything perfectly yet when I click the "Click HERE to see the home page of your site." it gives me a 500 internal error...

Anyone know why?

I can offer FTP access if neccesary..

Regards
Dan

Look in the error log in your Control Panel.

Which browser are you using?
I'm only asking because IE will often try to hide the real error message (such as SQL errors) on some platforms.

EDIT: Didn't see your link.
Have you set up your .htaccess file correctly? IIRC Xoops needs to set certain things up with Apache.

Re: 500 error on website

I don't have any experience with XOOPS2, but its best to try and strike out anything that can be causing probs. Do you know for sure if any other PHP scripts work on your site? you can check it by saving the following in a file and opening it online:

PHP Code:

<?php

phpinfo
();

?>
That is also useful for diagnostics, like making sure paths are setup up correctly if you get other problems down the line.
