( oh windows 7 and nothing is in the program files directory its got its on folder off the c:) set up xampp first built the databases second, then extracted wordpress (minus containing folder) to my web folder then created the wp-config.php and thats how I got here. everything works inside my lan as stated and looks beautiful.

But when opening some of the plugin setting pages the server responded with a “500 Internal Server Error” – especially when using plugins like “XML Sitemap Generator for WordPress” or when uploading pictures. When I activated the “StatPress Reloaded”- plugin non of the admin section was accessible anymore. * Diagnosis: PHP is running out of memory. * Solution: If you are running your own root, dedicated or virtual server this is an easy bugfix: You just have to change the php.ini of your server and provide more memory to your PHP installation. On a shared hosting server – like at the webhosting solutions at 1and1 you often don’t have access to that central php. ini. But there is an easy workaround: Create a text file and name it “php.ini”( without the quotes 😉 ) and with a single line of code in it: * memory=20MB * This file has to be placed into the directory /wp-admin/ within your WordPress installation. * going to try this when I get home….. stuck @ work right now, but if anyone knows something better I am willing to try that also * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [install.php not working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-not-working-2/) * Thread Starter [n1lore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/n1lore/) * (@n1lore) * [16 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-not-working-2/#post-1424685) * sorry i had tried it again later here is the error from the right time its the same one but i know how we like to have the exact log * [Sun Mar 14 12:51:02 2010] [error] [client 172.16.1.63] File does not exist: C:/www/favicon.ico * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [install.php not working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-not-working-2/) * Thread Starter [n1lore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/n1lore/) * (@n1lore) * [16 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-not-working-2/#post-1424684) * my server access log * 172.16.1.63 – – [14/Mar/2010:12:51:36 -0600] “GET /wp-admin/install.php HTTP/ 1.1” 500 – * server error log * [Sun Mar 14 13:19:27 2010] [error] [client 172.16.1.63] File does not exist: C:/www/favicon.ico * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [install.php not working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-not-working-2/) * Thread Starter [n1lore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/n1lore/) * (@n1lore) * [16 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-not-working-2/#post-1424610) * well its not that, I thought i would try other releases, none seem to pass through the install.php file. * thanx mrmist. but this appears to be somthing with mysql settings i changed localhost to something else and get an error saying it cant find the mysql… so I know its running, just cant figure this out my user name / pass and database are all correct. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [install.php not working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-not-working-2/) * Thread Starter [n1lore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/n1lore/) * (@n1lore) * [16 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installphp-not-working-2/#post-1424608) * ok , i should start by saying i dont know much about the php language and syntax, i feel there is something wtong with my install.php file, kind of did from the start. here is the text when I open it in an editor.
