Perhaps that should be modified in the BuddyPress requirements. I prefer php5, but WordPress Mu suggests lower.

[Justin Brock]

Called 1and1. We changed to php5 and now it’s working.

As far as files go, I just have access logs, mail logs and ftp logs.

[Justin Brock]

Will the line contain the word ‘error’?

[Justin Brock]

I can get to the log files. What am i looking for?

Thanks for your help, by the way.

Also, tried uploading a php.ini file in wp-admin that contained:

memory=20MB

upload_max_filesize = 8M

Same error.

Yeah, Jeremiah. That’s how it happens.

John, WordPress MU (2.7.1) is working fine. It’s when I upload BuddyPress (1.0.2) that i get the error. My admin panel, the public blog, everything becomes Error 500 in the browser once I upload the files.

I can still see everything fine in the ftp explorer [Filezilla]
