Server Error while updating permalink

Not sure if anyone has faced this issue and has solution to this.

I am installing wordpress on GoDaddy Shared Hosting Server. All goes well untill I change the permalink structure.

And below is the error message i get, to access admin or the url.

Server Error
500 - Internal server error.
There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

Thanks in advance.

 

1)first backup ur .htaccess
2)check ur .htaccess for syntax error
use this

http://shop.alterlinks.com/htaccess-validator/htaccess-validator.php

Code (markup):

3)upgrade php
4)ask ur host
5)don't use godaddy
If not resolved PM me

 

Deactivate Cache Plugins, Or Any other plugins which Could take Up PHP Memory For the instance and Update your Permalinks.

But, Its Always Better to Have a Reliable host with Flexible PHP memory to use on.

~ExP~

 

Thanks
I tried the validator, but I must admit i don't understand this. here is a code

<files wp-config.php>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</files>

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (\<|%3C).*script.*(\>|%3E) [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} GLOBALS(=|\[|\%[0-9A-Z]{0,2}) [OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} _REQUEST(=|\[|\%[0-9A-Z]{0,2})
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [F,L]

Code (markup):

upgrade PHP - How?
Godaddy is host.

 

There is no cache plugin installed. It has no other active plugin. Though main domain has few plugins.

 

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

Code (markup):

replace ur .htaccess code with above code

 

1. I replaced the with the above code. However, still the same result when I changes the Permalink Structure.
2. How do I restore it back how it was before the change in permalink. I have been uninstalled and installed wordpress couple of times allready.

Thanks

 

PM me server and wp login details . i will check it

 

I have an update.

I have been doing every crazy things possible on earth -

Deactivated plugins
Switch back to default themes
Renaming .htaccess files
Updated WP version

BUT nothing resolves the issue However I see a file web.config where i have installed WP (in a folder in the root) and when i break or rename it, error message doesn't appear and I get the option to login. But when I try to login it redirects to the same login page.

Here is the code from web.config file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
  <system.webServer>
    <rewrite>
      <rules>
                <rule name="wordpress" patternSyntax="Wildcard">
                    <match url="*"/>
                        <conditions>
                            <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true"/>
                            <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true"/>
                        </conditions>
                    <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php"/>
                </rule></rules>
    </rewrite>
  </system.webServer>
</configuration>

Code (markup):

What do i do so that i can login into admin? I have set a index.html file for time being and appears at url http://instantmoviesearch.com

Thanks for your help

 

There are so many fixes for this problem, it's hard to know which one to use.
Going by this thread, you are not the only one suffering from it. If you read the entire thread, there are several fixes you can try.

Here are a few others I've seen on other forums:

Add this line in .htaccess:
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

If you have a php.ini or php5.ini file, open it and turn off error logging (log_errors = off).
Apparently, the 500 error appears even when the log file is missing or unwritable.

Switch to another host!

 

probably one of the two: htaccess and its previledges (chmod).
