Got a question. I installed Xampp to run a localhost forum to test upgrades and changes. It was working great but recently it gave me the server error attached. Mysql and Apache are running and I've not changed anything that I can think of that would affect Xampp. What are the things I can check to see where the error is? Thanks.

500 errors are usually caused by malformed .htaccess file or server misconfiguration.

Like dismounted said, you've probably copied your forums .htaccess into your test machine when attempting to mirror it.

If that doesnt fix it, you can always try uninstalling XAMPP and reinstalling.

check the path to the perl script . it's always set to default and you must change it to where ever is housed.

Thanks for the replies. It just seems weird that it was working fine one day and was crashed the next. I'll see what I can do. Thanks.
