   Hi to ll of you

   I am trying to install wp 3.01 to my account and it seems that this partially is not possible.i am writing down the steps i followed :

   1. installation of wp 3.01. everything ok apart from the wp-admin page. when i am trying to log in i have the following error (although that i am loged in to the main page this error appears in the admin page.) :
   
   Internal Server Error
   The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
   Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@mad4food.gr and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
   More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
   Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
   Apache/2.2.16 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.16 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 DAV/2 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at http://www.mad4food.gr

   2. I changed the folder rights. no luck
   3. i tried to change the .htaccess file no luck
   4. i removed it and installed previous version 2.7.* and 2.9.* . It was ok. no prob at all (i have installed previous versions of wp for other projects and i didn't have any probs)
   5. tried to upgrade from the working previous versions to 3.01. still the same prob
   6. the wp-config file is ok

   any suggestions

   thanks in advance

   What you checked your Apache error logs?

   I am not sure about this, but I think version 3 can't use older PHP versions. Check what version of PHP you are running. If older versions of WP work then I personally would start there.

   Internal server errors (error 500) are often caused by plugin or theme function conflicts, so if you have access to your admin panel, try deactivating all plugins. If you don't have access to your admin panel, try manually resetting your plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

   If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the Default theme (WordPress 1.5 - 2.9.2) or the Twenty Ten theme (WordPress 3.0 and higher) to rule-out a theme-specific issue. If you don't have access to your admin panel, access your server via FTP or SFTP, navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and rename the directory of your currently active theme. This will force the Default theme (WordPress 1.5 - 2.9.2) or the Twenty Ten theme (WordPress 3.0 and higher) to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific issue.

   If that does not resolve the issue, it's possible that a .htaccess rule could be the source of the problem. To check for this, access your server via FTP or SFTP and rename the .htaccess file. If you can't find a .htaccess file, make sure that you have set your FTP or SFTP client to view invisible files.

   If you weren’t able to resolve the issue by either resetting your plugins and theme or renaming your .htaccess file, we may be able to help, but we'll need a more detailed error message. Internal server errors are usually described in more detail in the server error log. If you have access to your server error log, generate the error again, note the date and time, then immediately check your server error log for any errors that occurred during that time period. If you don’t have access to your server error log, ask your hosting provider to look for you.

   Have you checked PHP version numbers?

   I am not sure any more which errors you are getting, can you repost the latest state of play?
