I have consulted with my hosting agent they told me to set chmod as 755, as per their rules i can't use chmod 777 for longer run. Now i have set chmod level as they told me. and last thing they said me to remove php codes from htaccess file, and these codes are included in htaccess defaults by pligg system. Now i got php.ini file but i doesn't know how to use that file.

For 500 Internal Server Error
1. Create a blank .htaccess file instead or if that doesnt work try;
2. add the following into the .htaccess

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yoursubdomain.yourdomain.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.yourdomain.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/www\.yourdomain\.com" [R=301,L]

or add this ..

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

into .htaccess file to compliment the codes above - if the above codes alone, doesn't work ..

3. save the .htaccess file.

--------------

For php.ini
1. Navigate to root: /cgi-bin . (if there's no cgi-bin folder, create one) then ..go to no.2 below
2. create a blank php.ini
3. inside php.ini add

"register_globals = Off"

then save.

If all solutions above doesnt work - perhaps others can provide help.

Hi,
your reply to solution is appreciable, thanks

I did as you instructed me but by this task its still not working now its showing

"The page you were looking for doesn't exist!

It may have been removed or you may have arrived here by using a bad URL"

Its because i changed its permission from 777 to 755 as my web host said me that files will no longer stay as with 777 permission it must be under 755, so i did that but its still showing this above error...

Please help me as well if u can, thanks
