 * Hi there,
 * transfer your WP database from localhost to your new server, for example, via
   phpMyAdmin.

 * You need to transfer all the **data** from your localhost database to your server
   database, not just change host and password in wp-config.php file.

 * But now, if you have the 500 error, I suggest you to erase all data in your **
   servers database** and get back to “install.php” step.
