Very weird. after reading posts, it seems this error is due to excess traffic on the host using isapi. can wp run with php cgi?

wp-cron.php is getting the http 500 more than index.php.

what kind of write permissions does wp need?

Ran the backups.

Deactivated all plug ins. Changed to default theme.

Nothing comes up. created new page, still get blank.

Currently on wp 2.5, should i try the upgrade to 2.7?

This is my index.php file:
<?php
/* Short and sweet */
define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, true);
require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
?>

index.php has already been set to top of index list.

My host, Verio, said it was something wrong with the wordpress php’s. They actually do not know what is the problem and won’t help as it’s a third party.

At the time, not knowing whether to install wordpress or just copy when moving from one host to another, I ftp’d the zip file to new host web root, unzipped on the host, moved everything up to root as wanted to use http://www.allaboutsmiles.us, created the mysql DB and did create the tables. the database name had to change as it is required by Verio. Changed this in wp-config.php. changed the dbhost to define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘mysql-g11a.mysqldbserver.com’); left the secret-key alone.

I can login to http://www.allaboutsmiles.us/wp-admin and modify things and the wp database gets updated so assume the setting are correct.

Verio has a copy of wordpress and an auto install feature. I did try it, but it said database already existed and I cancelled out.

All links are correct too.

Here’s something never mentioned to you. When in wp-admin, Dashboard, Manage, Pages – can edit pages, but when time to view, View This Page – nothing comes up just like when trying to view the website.

Any thoughts?

Thanks. Running wp 2.5 on windows server.

Added update_option(‘siteurl’,’http://www.allaboutsmiles.us&#8217;);
update_option(‘home’,’http://www.allaboutsmiles.us&#8217;);
to wp-content\themes\medical-blog-10\functions.php according to wordpress support.

permalinks is updated. all links refer to new domain. getting http error 500. my hosting company, verio, suggests that the index.php file is wrong. the index.php file in the root is:
<?php
/* Short and sweet */
define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, true);
require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
?>
This wordpress site was created by someone else on another server with a different domain name. How does the index.php file get created. perhaps this is the problem.
