I have just tried to install WordPress and I have encountered 500 server error.
Now I know that it says it's an internal error but I am new to pretty much all of the server side programming and server setup, maybe I have made an error in my server or something, I just don't know, any help would be greatly appreciated.
give a link to where you are trying to install it so we can investigate
I would if I could, I am installing this on a local web server sorry guys, I will try and provide you with as much detail as I possibly can but I can't provide a link sorry.
local install?
