I followed the instructions at http://docs.bolt.cm/setup, and the first issue was SAFE MODE, which I was able to switch off using the .htacess file. Afterwards, I kept getting "500 Internal server error", so I haven't even seen the page to add the first user. As the documentation suggested, this has probably something to do with my .htaccess file. here's the contents of /public_html/tryout/bolt/.htaccess:
- Code: Select all
# Set the default handler.
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm
php_value safe_mode "0"
<FilesMatch "\.(yml|db)$">
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</FilesMatch>
FallbackResource /public_html/tryout/bolt/index.php
I used the RewriteBase/mod_rewrite alternatives (without success) and since my web host runs Apache 2.2.22 I also tried the FallbackResource statement.
From what I understand, the rewrite stuff in .htaccess is to support requests like "page/about-this-website", but is this required to set up the the first user as well? I also tried without any rewrite/fallback stuff in .htacess and I'm still getting the 500 Internal server error.
Additional info: Apache version 2.2.22 / PHP version 5.3.16 / MySQL version 5.1.65-cll, / phpinfo() at http://www.elbandido.be/tryout/version.php
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Pieter.
