 * Hi there,
 * i just changed the permalink structure in the wp-admin from default to custom
   using /%postname%.
    I did not change something in the .htaccess file. Nor did
   I do anything else. After clicking on save, the Internal Server Error came up.
   I can’t access any page. Neither blog nor admin-pages.
 * I deleted the .htaccess-file, I changed the file permissions to 777. I deleted
   in the wp_options database the entry “/%postname%” in the permalink_structure
   entry. But I still get the damn Internal Server Error. And I really don’t know
   what else to do. I don’t want to reinstall!
 * Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
