    Hi Guys,

    A first time user of WordPress here. I installed the stuff completely from scratch, using the readme.html that’s provided with the files, but I get a 500 internal server error when going to http://www.docmartin.nl/wp-admin/install.php. And yes I did create a mySql database, using cpanel.

    Here’s what I wrote in the wp-config.php. I’m not too sure whether the prefixes siebebos_ should be there?

    define('DB_NAME', 'siebebos_docmartin');
    define('DB_USER', 'siebebos_siebe');
    define('DB_PASSWORD', 'mypassword');
    define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
    define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
    define('DB_COLLATE', '');

    here’s the error message I get when I go to http://www.docmartin.nl/wp-admin/install.php:

    Internal Server Error

    There can be many reasons for 500 error i.e. invalid code in .htaccess file, PHP memory problem, configuration problem from server end, file permissions issue etc.

    Check the “error logs” from your cPanel. You should get the information about why you are getting 500 error page.
