500 Server Error – Install.php

  • Resolved 789848

    16 years, 8 months ago

    Windows NT SAFTEK2003 5.2 build 3790
    PHP Version 5.2.6
    PHP Mem – 128m
    Safe Mode – off
    MySql – 5.0.51a
    IIS 6.0

    ———————-
    Administer server locally.
    Have two other php/mysql apps operating within directory.

    1) Unzipped and Loaded WP in mydomain.com/blog folder.
    2) Created mysql database with proper username/pw and permissions. Can connect through odbc – for test.
    3) Checked directory permissions – same as other php/mysql installation.
    4) Changed and renamed wp-config.php per instructions. – db name, id/pw correct.
    5) When I attempt to run mydomain.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php… I get a 500 server error.

    Not a memory problem… doesn’t appear to be a permissions problem. Any other ideas?

    the secret key entry in the wp-config file contained a contracted word. Removed the apostrophe… now works.
