 * I have a addon domain named humanitiesunderground.org . I installed WordPress
   using softaculous in that directory. when I visit humanitiesunderground.org I
   see wordpress running but when I try to change theme or go to the plugin.php 
   i receive a internal error 500. I see that my .htaccess file contains:
    # BEGIN
   WordPress # END WordPress
 *  My php.ini file contains:
    memory=64MB
 * I have changed the memory value to 128MB and 256MB but had no luck.
 * PLEASE HELP….. I am highly fraustrated for now…… 🙁

 * Look at the `error_log` on your server. This will tell you what the error actually
   is. A 500 error can be the .htaccess file, but sometimes it’s not, so you need
   to look further down into the logs to find out whats happening.

 * Hi,
 * I am from the Softaculous team. Softaculous does not create the above mentioned.
   htaccess file. Can you please try to rename it to htaccess.bak and then check
   if you still face the issue.
 * If you still face any issue please open a support ticket with us we will check
   it.

 * As the .htaccess file only contains comments, I severaly doubt that it is causing
   the issue. Check your Apache error log on the server for more information on 
   what the issue is. .htaccess is also recursive so check within any of the directories
   above it for problematic .htaccess files.
