Plugin will not activate

HI all, I just installed the latest Buddypress (1.2.6) in a fresh install of WP (3.0.3) and the plugin will not activate, in fact, it takes WordPress down with it until I change the plugin directory name to deactivate it. Completely fresh install on a host that I currently use for a half-dozen WordPress blogs. Have reinstalled manually, same issue.

No other plugins running, have not altered any files.

Directory structure in error message below, which is correct:

Error message:The website encountered an error while retrieving http://www.caremovement.org/wp-admin/plugins.php?activate=true&plugin_status=all&paged=1

Server 500 error

Permissions issue? Dbase issue?
Thanks for your help!

Got it working following advice in the above thread to change my .htaccess file to allocate more memory:

### Set PHP directives ###
php_value memory_limit 96M

I used 60M instead of 96M and the plugin activated. 30M did not work.

Hope this helps others with the same, very random issue, and thanks mercime for the pointer.
