 * Can someone please help me figure this out. I have been getting a 500 Internal
   Service Error for my blog, I can’t view it at all.
 * So I made a post on the thread here to figure out how to fix it and I was directed
   to do so through the use of phpMyAdmin.
 * The only way I was able to download and open this was through using BitZipper….
   so now I have no idea what I should do in Bitzipper.
 * I dont want to have to delete anything, I just want to be able to sign in again
   and get back to blogging…can someone, anyone please help me.
 * Thanks in advance,
 * Breanne

 * While you were in phpmyadmin, if you changed your user name and/or password, 
   you must also update wp-config.php from your ftp so they match.

 * Thanks for responding Inspired2Write but I didn’t change my name or password 
   at all. That and I don’t think I am actually able to access phpmyadmin because
   I have opened it using bitzipper…and it looks nothing like the phpmyadmin area.
   Although i can’t be positive beings as I have never used this before.
 * All I need is to get rid of this silly 500 error and be able to log in again…
   what is happening? I didn’t think wordpress was this shoddy.
 * I didn’t do anything besides click on a plugin upgrade then after that I get 
   a 500 error that won’t go away.
 * Arghh..
 * any other suggestions please?

 * Out of frustration, I can understand how you feel. It isn’t a WP issue, but rather
   a potential problematic plugin, and/or possibly a conflict with the plugin and
   the configuration of your hosts server (assuming you’re plugin is a security 
   one that may require some configuration settings.
