    Check what you have in your error logs. If you don’t where that is, do contact your webhosting tech support about the issue.

    Are you on Windows or Linux server or locally hosted on WAMP, MAMP, or XAMPP?

    If on webhosting service, did you install WordPress via webhost script like Fantastico or Simplescripts, etc.? Start from scratch and install WordPress manually as in upload via FTP/cPanel/etc. Otherwise, please check server requirements plus WP configurations https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#system-server

    Apache rewrite module not enebled
    I have not installed wordpress to the root directory of my domain.
    That is the directory where i installed wordpress is “www.mysite.com/demo”

    You’ll need it enabled.

    and if issue persists and you have plenty of PHP script memory you will need to look at your server logs as mentioned earlier to pinpoint the issue.

    Have you tried editing the .htaccess file? Make a copy of the current .htaccess then add the below code between the lines and save it to the .htaccess :


    # BEGIN WordPress

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

    Options -Indexes

    # END WordPress


    Hope this helps!
    :-)

    P.S. this code should also prevent directory browsing because I added:
    Options-Indexes
    If you don’t know what that means google it.
    Cheers!
