 * Hi,
 * I’ve installed WordPress using DirectAdmin.
 * Everything should be fine, but the WordPress setup menu does not appear in the
   browser. When I try to access the website where the setup menu starts, it shows–
   This page isn’t working gantiadi.ge is currently unable to handle this request.
   HTTP ERROR 500
 * Here are steps that I tried after Googled the error:
    1. Created .htaccess file(
   I could not find it and so created myself) 2. Created and configured DB in wp.
   conf file 3. Contacted my host provider and updated PHP 7.4.3 (Same as WordPress)
   4. Uploaded WordPress files once again
 * None of this helped. Could you please someone help what can be wrong? Before 
   uploading WordPress files, I deleted old website files so there can be anything
   that I’ve accidentally deleted and this can be the reason?
 * Thank you
