    i don't know what i'm doing wrong..

    i uploaded all the files and if i just enter the site, instead of seeing all the folders i see the 500 Internat Error..

    it's my hosting? Am i doing something wrong?

    you need to give more details like what is the script for and if it has options for debugging.
    Most likely PHP is not able to process a request / find a resource etc and that is showing up to you as an internal error.

    Check the document that has come with the script and make sure you check / go through the steps properly. If nothing works, you have to review the code line by line on the offending page to get to the root of the problem.

    Thanks

    yes, more information will help, but try to chmod the the files that require 777 with 755.

    Hi,

    you might not need that, first just edit the file .htaccess has described, then jut create a file called phpinfo.php or whatever you want with this content:

    <?php
    phpinfo ();
    ?>

    You have to upload this to your website, then you can check if the register_globals are set to "off"

    If not, you will have to ask your hosting provider to switch them off.

    remember also what I told before about the file permissions set to 777

    You also need to check the ".htaccess" on your hosting root folder.

    if you try chmod all folder to 755 and you still can not install this script . You can rename sub folder and create new subfolder with old name via ftp and move all file and folder to newfolder :D (al script have been this error when use script to extract zip file)
