    Hey everyone,

    i don’t get it. I can’t run the wp-admin/install.php
    I downloaded the wordpress zip. Unzipped it. Then I uploaded all the files in the wordpress folder to / on my server with FileZilla. When I access my domain i have to put in my database info which perfectly works. After that i hit run installation and the Error 500 – Internal server error comes up.

    What could i possibly do wrong here?

    Thank you in advance.
    David

    There are a variety of reasons for a 500 error and resolutions which include fixing .htaccess and/or upgrading memory and/or windows iis server needs configuring, etc. etc. etc.

    Best way to know is to check your error logs in server via some server admin panel or C-Panel or ask your webhost’s tech support to get it for you. In the meantime you might want to check solutions via search in WP forums.

    Options All -Indexes

    AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
