mike and juno:

Error 500 means the server did something wrong. It’s an HTTP error, which means the server is telling the browser that the server messed up.

Unfortunately, there is no further information, which makes debugging a real pain.

From experience, there’s probably an error in your rewrite rules. Ask your host where they keep the error logs that Apache and PHP produce, it might turn up some clues. Also, check that you’ve spelt everything correctly.

There are quite a big number of problems that could be causing the error, it’s hard to pinpoint which one without more information.

But good luck! Every problem has a solution…
