I'm trying to install a gallery on a free hosting site, but all the time I get 500 internal error messages. I followed all the instructions correctly; set all the setup php file permissions to 755, .htaccess and config.php first to 666 and when that didn't work to 777, but it still gives me that 500 error.
How do I solve this, or must I upgrade to a paid account?

In case some knowledgable people might not check the other forum. It is a php question, cause I have to run the php to install the gallery, but it might also be a pre-sale question, cause it might be a feature that has been disabled for free accounts, couldn't find conclusive answer for that in the FAQ. But moderators, could delete or merge the other thread.

ANyway, I'm still stuck with that 500 internal error, it won't let me run the phps in the setup folder. Although I have done everything the installation guide told me to do, except for checking the php settings (permissions are all 755 for the files in and the setup folder)

More than likely, it's an issue with your scripts, what are you trying to install, what's the URL.

Looking at: http://forumphotos.hostingrapid.com/gallery/ it says:

Quote:
1. Create an empty file .htaccess and an empty file config.php
2. Create an albums folder for your pictures and movies.
Make sure that both files and the folder are read and writeable for your webserver !


Did you create the empty file and folder, upload them to the server and set the permissions to 777?

Yep, as I said in my first post, I did all that already. I don't know what else I can do, I really would like this to work. Is it still a permission issue or has it got something to do with the PHP settings of the host?

By the way Dale, the host is ofcourse 100webspace.

I think I tried an installation of this script and it didn't work if I remember correctly.

Here is the issue, the install process is trying to modify the .htaccess file and it's not allowed on these servers.

I was able to load and install it on my home test server but when I tried it on my freepage I got the same error.

When I look at the server error log here is what I see:

Code:
[Wed Dec 28 01:27:54 2005] [alert] [client xx.xx.xx.xx] /home/users/xxxxxx/www/xxxxxx.madpage.com/gallery/setup/.htaccess: Options not allowed here


I would suggest finding another program to use.
