Error 500 - IllusiaX - 2017-05-18
I'm installing GetSimple CMS for the first time and I got passed the login page of the installation where it said it couldn't send out my password to my email then displayed my password along with the option to login, then I got this message:
"Server error!
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script.
If you think this is a server error, please contact the [email=postmaster@localhost]webmaster[/email].
Error 500
localhost
Apache/2.4.25 (Win32) OpenSSL/1.0.2j PHP/5.6.30 "
I tried to re-install my going back to "localhost/mysite/admin" but now all I get is the same error message.
What am I doing wrong?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
RE: Error 500 - shawn_a - 2017-05-18
check your host error log, that is a fatal php error typically or a config error, perhaps somethig in our .htaccess is not happy,

I changed the 'Rewrite Base' to my subdirectory folder as instructed in the .htaccess-File.
According to my apache error logs: AH01909: www.example.com:443:0 server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server name
According to some research: server name used in Apache (httpd.conf) must be the same as the server name in apache (httpd-ssl.conf)
I've tried this and I still get the same error.

You DO have a .htaccess-File, even on local installations. I think the reason for the error is, that you tried to call your local site via SSL (https://localhost in spite of http://localhost) without having an SSL-ceritficate

This is my htaccess-File, I followed the instructions fro RewriteBase but I'm guessing there is more I need to do but havent. I've never installed one of these before, this is all new to me.

Thank you so much for your help.
RE: Error 500 - Alexander_ - 2017-05-22
Try this:
RewriteBase /htdocs/princeandprincessevents/
Alex
RE: Error 500 - shawn_a - 2017-05-22
have you commented out the options one by one ? Some hosts do not allow those
RE: Error 500 - Carlos - 2017-05-23
Shouldn't it be
Code:
RewriteBase /princeandprincessevents/RE: Error 500 - IllusiaX - 2017-05-23
Thank you for the replies guys, but unfortunately none of them have worked, I still get the same error.
RE: Error 500 - shawn_a - 2017-05-23
Didnyou check apache error log?

RewriteBase C:\xampp\htdocs\princeandprincessevents\admin
is definitely wrong.
So try one of these
RewriteBase /
RewriteBase /htdocs/
RewriteBase /htdocs/princeandprincessevents/
Don't use the backslash \ but the slash / to separate the directories.
And make a new line before you write RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

I guess c:/xampp/ is apaches root. So /htdocs/princeandprincessevents/ is probably tho correct RewriteBase.
Alex
RE: Error 500 - Carlos - 2017-05-25
I was assuming that Apache's root is c:/xampp/htdocs and GS is installed in /princeandprincessevents/
But who knows.
Anyway the .htaccess file should have been generated properly when installing GS - no need to edit the rewritebase if the installation was successful.

The installation wasn't successful. I've been trying to install it and I get the error.

I'm afraid I'm still getting the same error.
RE: Error 500 - IllusiaX - 2017-05-25
My apache error logs say this: www.example.com:443:0 server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server name
But I'm not sure how to fix it.
