Angry HTTP 500 - Internal server error - INSTALLING

I just downloaded the latest version and am trying to install this in mySQL/PHP environment on Yahoo Hosting. I made all the correct DB changes:

1. After the database was created, copy the "[PHPDIG_DIR]/include/_connect.php" file to "[PHPDIG_DIR]/include/connect.php" and edit the new one.

2.Replace the values "<host>", "<user>", "<pass>", and "<database>" to your database server URL, the username, the password to connect to it (if required) and the name you give to the phpdig database.

I verified that I have 7 tables in my database (phpdig), so I am not sure why its throwing error 500 and not giving me any DB connection errors...Like its dying @ web server before it can reach DB...any ideas ?

Hi. Did you use a prefix in the table names? If so, does it match the PHPDIG_DB_PREFIX in the connect.php file? What messages, if any, are showing up in the /logs/scripts.log file?

Thanks for reply:

a. // Connection configuration
define('PHPDIG_DB_PREFIX',''); - so i'm not using prefix...

b. here's what is recurring in the log file you mention:

----------repeated over and over in log, multiple attempts-------

-------------end of log------------

Does this thing use basic authentication? I think Yahoo hosting will not support that....or at least i havent figure out how to do it...

Thanks for reply !!! I will keep digging...if nothing else, i'll look into getting another search engine...coz yahoo search for hosting is terrible....

Hi. Did you define('PHPDIG_ADM_AUTH','1'); in the config file? Are you able to protect a directory using .htaccess instead?

If you can do .htaccess, then try define('PHPDIG_ADM_AUTH','0'); and try .htaccess to protect the PhpDig admin area instead.

i do not have .htaccess in Yahoo hosting - might need some name of the best PHP/mysql hosting services which are reasonible and allow for more control though.

i am just starting to prototype my internet company and am in just trying to get identified the best tools to use or "re"use in my case.

i was able to work around Error 500 by setting access to 0 from 1, doing admin work, then changing it back to error 500...this in affect makes it secure i guess...

anyway, thank for all your help....if you know some "best of breed" hosing services for PHP/mySQL which gives you more control over your environment, let me know please.

Hi. This is not anything against your host - they could be the best in the world for all I know - but you might try checking out Servlets.com for written reviews about some other hosting companies.
