You have Internal Server Errors (code 500) in your browser

Site Admin/Owner Joined: Aug 27, 2002 Posts: 17088

Example Errors:
Example items in your cPanel error log (cPanel > Error log) will be like:
- Invalid command 'php_flag', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
- Invalid command 'php_value, perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

The script(s) you are using assumes that PHP is installed as a module. PHP is now installed as a CGI on our servers. Your script(s) should have documentation for how to install it on servers that run PHP as a CGI. This is sometimes referred to as PHP SuExec or SuPHP. Instead of adding these directives to your .htaccess file, add them into a file called php.ini and place this file in the same directory that your script runs in. Most often this will be public_html, but in some cases you will install your script in a subdirectory. Wherever your script runs, this is the place for your php.ini file. You will need to drop the "php_flag" and "php_value" prefix. You will also need to put an equals (=) sign between the setting and the value.

For example, if your script recommends these settings in a .htaccess file:
__________________________________________
php_value upload_max_filesize 10M
php_value post_max_size 10M
php_value max_execution_time 60

php_flag register_globals off
__________________________________________

Put them in a php.ini file instead. Here is the proper syntax:
__________________________________________
upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 10M
max_execution_time = 60

register_globals = off
__________________________________________

in my case these couple line of code in htaccess file created 500 problem:

#Options All -Indexes
#DirectoryIndex index.php index.htm index.html

Just delete them and add after:
Options +FollowSymLinks
these two lines:
Options +Indexes
Options -Multiviews

Very useful for Godaddy.com hosting funs! Smile

I resell and host on GoGaddy with no problems with those. Are you sure that is your real problem.

# 'Options +FollowSymLinks' is required for use of mod_rewrite.
# Can be commented out if causes errors, see notes above.
Options +FollowSymLinks

# 'Options +Includes' is required for use of Server Side Includes (SSI), such as custom error pages (like 403.shtml).
# Can be commented out if causes errors, see notes above.
#Options +Includes

# 'Options -Indexes' is used for controlling directory listings if there is not an index file in a directory (and said directory is readable by the web server).
# A directory index will be automatically generated and this can prove to be a dangerous security issue.
# To disable this feature, use: 'Options -Indexes'
# To enable this feature (not advised), use: 'Options +Indexes'
# Can be commented out if causes errors, see notes above.
Options -Indexes

# Set search order for index files
