Wordpress 500 - Internal server error (edit)

Question

I'm receiving "500 - Internal server error." on the domain of my WordPress site.

Installed WordPress locally through Web Platform Installer in IIS (Win7).

Developed a landing page in Firefox locally, then FTP'd the site to the web server (which also hosts multiple sites from various domains).

Used MySQL Workbench 5.2 CE to create and export the database, which was also uploaded onto the server. Database was tested.

I've read all the posts relating to "Wordpress" and "500 - Internal server error.", none have helped.

I've tried creating the file with the following contained: 文件：

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

All file paths in IIS are correct.

Below is the file 文件

<?php
/**

  * Secret Keys, WordPress Language, and ABSPATH. You can find more information

Please help! Thanks

Answer 1

Wordpress stores some domain-specific settings in its options table. If you did the installation locally and then exported it to an external hosting provider it is very likely that those settings are still misconfigured in your WordPress DB and setup for a local installation.

Check the options table in WordPress (add your prefix as needed). Look through the rows for those options that make references to your local installation (its URL or resources) and update them with the corresponding values appropriate for your hosting.

In particular, I'd suggest you check the rows with the following option_name s:

• siteurl
• home

Once those are setup correctly you should be able to access WP's installation and fix others (like image URLs and some other things like that) from its admin interface.
