 * Hi folks,
 * I recently installed WP on a subdomain of a site, as a place to explore and experiment
   with WP.
 * You can find it at [http://bududah.itcamefromcanada.com](http://bududah.itcamefromcanada.com)
 * I installed a few plugins to try out (podcasting plugin, statcounter, and a twitter
   plugin), and have essentially left it alone for a few days. When I tried to access
   it today, the site is giving me a “500 Insternal Server Error” warning.
 * Thing is, I’ve had this happen before, and I don’t know why. I am guessing that
   this is related to the install being on a subdomain. I have WP installed on another
   site, and have never had any problems. It only erupts on a subdomain…
 * Am I missing something unbelievably obvious?
 * Cheers,
    KEvin

 * Hi,
 * This error occured due to these:
 * – The file permissions for your WordPress files is incorrect. Hence, assigned
   755 recursive permissions to wp-content folder of your blog.
 * – One of the rules in your WordPress .htaccess file. may be incorrect. Hence,
   delete and recreate the htaccess file and add this code in htaccess:
 *  ` # BEGIN WordPress
 *  RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond%{
   REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
 *  # END WordPress`
 * Thanks,
 * Shane G.
