Step 3 - 500 Error

Jordan · September 11th, 2011, 12:58 PM

I'm trying to install and every time i get to step 3, i get a 500 error.

Its a windows server with Abyss Web Server. MySQL 5 is installed, and i even tried installing with strict mode disabled and the same error occurs.

I see that all the tables are being created.

What's happening?

I have never heard of any errors like this and am not familiar with abyss web server configs.

Your server error logs should give you more of a detailed message as 500 error is the most general of errors and gives me no info to base a resolution to. I would need a more detailed error message to suggest what your issue might be.

Is there an SQL file of the database available that i can import?

No the install script has all the sql queries within it.

The problem like I said right now is you need to get the error from your server logs to narrow down your issue.

I have personally installed this application on all types of servers with no issues so let me know what your logs say so I can suggest how to fix your issue.

I finally got it installed by installing XAMPP locally and then copying over the database to my web server. Everything seems to be working fine.

Okay no problem just make sure mysql strict mode is off
