500 error when initiating groups and forums

Hello,
Can someone help me? I Have installed buddypress and magic members. everything seems to work except the groups and forums. As I create either, at the last step I am taken to a 500 internal server error. The groups appear on the pages however again when I attempt to access them, I am taken to the same error. When checking the error log, it indicates “[warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `localserver’ does NOT match server name!?”

I have tried reinstall, permalink reset, deactivating all plugins and reactivating one at a time, deleted any plugins that may cause confusion.

Is it htaccess, codex issues? Has anyone experienced this. Thank you for any direction.

Not exactly. You might want to check permalinks with respect to your problem. It may or may not be the same problem. I did attempt to reset my permalinks to no avail.

I uploaded the buddypress plugin through wordpress as opposed to using ftp. I did so into the root. it. works up to the group or forum creation. Everything else still works.

The site spins a bit before I get a 500 internal server error. I can go back to the previous page no problem. Just those newly added groups and forums are the problem…

The recorded error so far when going to the incompleted creation is;
“[warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN) `MYDOMAIN’ does NOT match server name!?”

Still looking for tips but will come back and post solution if I find it in mean time..

Hello,
In the end they all work together. My issue was one of two things. 1. template not compatible or 2. missed a step in in configuring wordpress for multisite functionality.

Here was the solution.
Made a new directory in root for community and started fresh wordpress setup.
Disable the jetpack plugin which was automatically active. Install buddypress and setup.
Install setup magic members.

Here are two articles that are helpful.
