A ‘500 Internal Server Error’ is almost always a scripting issue. The ‘Premature end of script headers’ error is usually associated with a cgi script error. It sounds like your host is running PHP as a CGI extension, which is common in large shared hosting environments. Contact your web host provider for assistance. * Thread Starter [tomky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomky/) * (@tomky) * [17 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/yet-another-install-problem/#post-1065894) * I have emailed them, awaiting a responce! * Thanks for the guidance, will let you know how I get on. * Steve * Thread Starter [tomky](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tomky/) * (@tomky) * [17 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/yet-another-install-problem/#post-1065933) * Hi, * Re-installed it and it worked!
