Hey;
this seemed to happen out of nowhere.
I have two subdirectories on a dedicated 1and1 server serving as test sites. They are both throwing the error 500-internal server error now.
I haven't messed with their .htaccess files.. and they have everything required (add php5, etc)
When I turn off the php module in 1and1 advanced server configuration, they work fine (but the redirects I use on the main website stop working). When I turn it back on, it doesn't work - pages will load like 1 in 15 reloads.
I've tried increasing memory limits, nothing.
Any idea?
Both drupal installations seem to be behaving the same, so it seems to be stemming from one problem.
1and1 people sent me an error log of apache, but I couldn't figure out anything from it.
Anyone feeling helpful??

plot thickens
when i delete the .htaccess file in my ROOT directory (both drupal installtions in subdirectories of root), it makes one of them work fine. but the other one still throws error.
Seems like my htaccess files are all screwed up. I have no idea what could be wrong with them.
ht access
ok so when i delete the ROOT directory htaccess file (for the main site which is just php/mysql), ONE of the drupal installations (in its own subdirectory) works fine. I also tried deleting everything in that htaccess file. as long as the file is there, it doesnt work?????
hooray for clogging up
hooray for clogging up forums.
there seems to be some error in this htaccess file.
is having two different re-writes to the same URL an error??
