Internal server error for admin login

[lisah746]

Hey all,

I just finished moving my site to a new domain. I followed the instructions for moving and the site comes up fine. However, when I try to access the admin page to log on I get a 500 internal server error. I have checked my admin/includes/configure file and the ssl is set to false. I am using the regular http to get to my admin site for now until I can afford a ssl cert.

Any help in figuring out why I am getting the 500 would be greatly appericiated.

running version 1.3.8a
db version 1.3.8
Linux ver.2.6.27-6_1.intel.BHsmp
PHP Version: 5.2.8 (Zend: 2.2.0)
MySQL 5.0.75

1. Your server's apache errorlog should tell you the actual cause of the "500 internal server error" message.
2. What is in your /admin/.htaccess file? (if you have one)

I had the same problem and i fixed it by giving permission to admin folder, in my case "755".

OWNER: read, write, execute
GROUP: read, execute
PUBLIC: read, execute

hope it helps

Me TOO ukrik! I just reset my admin permissions to 755, and bingo, I have an admin to login to now. Halelujia!
