500 Internal server error when installing
When I go to the install.cgi script it says internal server error. I did everything correct.

Whats going on?

Hi,

Could be a couple of things:

1) You have the path to perl wrong in install.cgi
2) You havn't CHMOD'ed the install.cgi script to 755
3) Some servers will give a 500 IS error if you have got 777 permissions on the folders above it (for security)

Hope that helps!

Cheers
