vBulletin 500 Internal Server Error

Are your permissions set properly for the installer? Do you have PHP enabled/installed?
 
Yes is the answer in both of your questions. I don't know what the problem is :confused:
 
Check your webserver error log to find out what is causing the error.
 
Cause i'm kind of newbie,could you tell me where i can find htaccess and what parameters do i have to change?
The error log showed me this:
[Tue Dec 16 08:34:44 2008] [error] [client myip] SoftException in Application.cpp:245: File "/home/mysite/domains/mysite.gr/public_html/forum/files/IPBoard/upload/index.php" is writeable by group
[Tue Dec 16 08:34:44 2008] [error] [client myip] Premature end of script headers: index.php

Thank you guys for your time!

Then you must have wrong permissions on the files that it doesnt like. Did you follow the install guide of the software to ensure you set the permissions right?
 
Make sure you can view all hidden files in your server.
then you can see your htaccess. make a backup just in case you need to restore it.

Delete the .htaccess in your folder and test to see if every thing is working
if not it is not htacess
 
Could you tell what do i have to do to see the hidden files? I think it's a .htaccess problem cause the permission rights are set correctly. Goodmorning!!
 
ok
how do you connect to your host with direct admin?
just use a ftp program because I am new with direct admin too

download filezilla ftp software and connect you will see it.
 
thank you very much my friend. after i find the .htaccess file do i have to write some code in it or i have only unhide it?
 
First let's see your problem is because of htaccess ( I am 90% sure)
so just change the name to let's say .htaccess000000

go to your vbulletin and see if it is working if it works then yes
that was the problem , send me the htaccess and I will have a look at it
I myself don't know a lot but still I can solve some problems
