Internal Server Error

The 500 errors occur from bad site configuration. Multiple reasons can cause this problem.

.htaccess

If the .htaccess syntax is incorrect, the web server displays the 505 error.
You must rename .htaccess to .htaccess_bak for example. If your site works now, .htaccess was the cause.

permissions/rights

You should follow a couple security rules for the rights you give to your scripts:
-the root of your site is obligated to be 705 (default ovh permissions)
This is found in your directory / or . (point) in your ftp connection.
do not modify this
- the other directories must be a maximum of 755
- the php/cgi scripts must be a maximum of 755

script error

If you program in perl for example, an error in your script briefs a 505 error.
You wil not see any more details (questions of security). To debug your scripts,
you can use the telnet/ssh connection (on 720plan and xxlplan only).
