By kool_zool on 29 Oct 2007 at 13:31 UTC

i have placed my .htaccess in the main folder for the website that i am trying to create, on my 1and1 server.

when i go to ?q=admin/settings/clean-urls

and click on the run test button i get Error 500 - Internal server error

the code i am running is below. i have tried different variations of this code but all i am getting is 404 error message.

This works for me with no problems. (I'm NOT using mysql 5.X I hear it is awful!) Hope that helps!

tryed that

kool_zool commented 29 October 2007 at 14:05

that code just gives me a 404 error.

i have saved my htaccess as htaccess.txt on my desk to then rename it when i upload using my ftp to .htaccess

clean urls

kool_zool commented 29 October 2007 at 14:01

i am trying to get clean urls. i have tryed the same thing with drupal 5.2 and drupal 5.3. I am currently using the 5.3. if you have any ideas of that is am missing from the code or has been put into the code that can come out.

RewriteBase

pcs305 commented 29 October 2007 at 15:34

Kool_zool,

In your .htaccess posted, uncomment the RewriteBase statement in your .htaccess.
#RewriteBase /drupal should be RewriteBase /
If you are in a subdir then RewriteBase /subdirectoryNameHere

It works for me on 1and1.

Success with Drupal 6 and 1and1

Anonymous (not verified) commented 18 February 2008 at 15:15

Hi there! I just had to mention your code (from "got them to work and here is the code i used for my Clean Url" dated October 30, 2007) worked for me! I'm brand new to Drupal, and just installed Drupal 6 as it was just released. I haven't even started adding content yet, or customizing the theme or anything. I was trying all kinds of things to try and get that Clean URL working, but the code you provided was an instant success!

Thanks SO much!

Worked for me too on drupal 6.1

justinledwards commented 3 March 2008 at 16:02

I am using it with php5 so I have an extra line at the top that reads.

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

thanks a lot

viktor.mastoridis commented 26 April 2009 at 02:48

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
Worked for me on 1and1.

Please could you assist me

Ninjababe commented 17 March 2010 at 10:43

Please could you assist me with the following. I saw on a forum that you have done this before and that you are with 1and1.
I have finally succesfully installed drupal on my domain, but as soon as I try to navigate to other pages like themes section or administer, I get the following message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: array_intersect_key() in /homepages/39/d315291643/htdocs/riskcontrol/drupal-6.16/modules/update/update.compare.inc on line 695

The welcome page is there, but when I try clicking on anything else and it gives the above message?

I contacted 1and1 and they suggested the following: all you need to do is to parse php to 5.0

To parse php to 5, all you need to is to insert this line "AddType x-mapp-php5 .php " in your drupal .htaccess file

Please advise my if this information is correct and how I go about in doing this???? How & where do I insert this line?

I'm so glad there's a solution

VELOC1RAPT0R commented 29 August 2009 at 17:47

Unfortunately I'm not very internet savvy. So my sight (getitbacksystem.com) lost all of it's header tabs and pages but they were still "published". It was error 500 and I'm pretty sure 1and1's fault, I downloaded filezilla and found the .htaccess file but I can't get it onto my computer for some reason to add that final line of code. Any pointers?

Worked for me also in Drupal

AD-DA commented 13 February 2009 at 00:45

Worked for me also in Drupal 6.9. Two changes needed:
1. Uncomment and specify install directory in

-- # RewriteBase /
++ RewriteBase /Drupaldir

2. Add the following line at the end of the .htaccess

AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

1 and 1 sub directory

raff77 commented 26 February 2009 at 18:50

I have the same problem with a client. I had set up a staging subdomain.

Solution = do not use 1 and 1. Support is terrible.
