    Hi I received the "Internal Server Error" screen after playing around with Settings/Permalinks: WordPress Address and Site Address.
    I followed the instructions for Changing the URL directly in the database and replaced the .htaccess file in the WordPress directory as shown under Creating and Editing (.htaccess).
    Now when I click to view a post I receive the XAMPP for Windows page (/localhost/xampp) saying I've successfully installed xampp.
    Please could someone tell me how to get my posts back.
    Thanks for any help
    (:David

    For anyone reading this, I'm still stumbling around looking for my posts.
    This may be a clue, I have a post who's ID No. is 427 and if I type url:

    127.0.0.1/wordpress/?p=427 I see the post but if I type:

    localhost/wordpress/?p=427 (or click view) I get the XAMPP for Windows page.

    Admin/Posts Permalink: http://localhost/wordpress/2011/10/test-gallery/

    Thanks for any help.

    I had the same problem for the past week, the way I fixed was to create a clean installation of WordPress on my local, then Export from server and Import to my new local WordPress ... I followed this http://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-with-xampp which redirects to http://codex.wordpress.org/Importing_Content#WordPress

    Hope it helps!
