RESOLVED!

any file in your public_html directory must be in 644 permissions and each file must be in 755 permissions in order to work correctly. This is simply due to the fact that our shared server run in a suPHP enviroment. I have corrected all of the permissions in your account and now your site is resolving fine.

Thanks for the reply but it looks like this isn’t the issue. I’ve renamed/deleted the .htaccess completely, and also added the recommended code above but am still running into this. Also tried 766 as recommended.

I’ve contacted my hosting with the same question to see if they could detect anything. Is there anything else I should be looking at besides the .htaccess file?

hey thanks. As a test, I set the CHMOD on everything in the “wp-” folders and the .htaccess to 777 and still getting the internal server 500. Any other files/directories I should be looking at?

Sorry for my frustration but I’m having a lot of trouble with this considering how it seems to be such a simple fix.

I’ve tried both of these suggestions after reading through all of the other related forum threads and still am having no luck with either blog/wp-rss2.php or blog/?feed=rss2. Is there something else I may be missing?

anyone?? i’m getting frustrated. I think I’ve tried every possible solution posted.

You said:

In your wp-rss2.php locate this line near the top:

require(‘wp-blog-header.php’);

Put $cat=”-15″ right above it, like so:

$cat=”-15″;
require(‘wp-blog-header.php’);

The problem for me is that my wp-rss2.php does not have this line of code. There is a section of code on this page that says:

if (empty($wp)) {
require_once(‘wp-config.php’);
wp(‘feed=rss2’);
}

but that is it. Can anyone please help me to disable one category from the RSS feed I’ve tried every solution that came up in the search for “exclude RSS” and it just won’t work. Is there something different I should be using with 2.0??

I’ve tried this but it is not working. The site is functioning the same as before this line was added to the index.php code. Am I missing something?

Thanks! I knew it was something simple.
