500 Error After Install

Right after the part where you set up the SQL databases I was finally into flarum. Then I noticed notifications, posting, and things like that were broken with an error.

I talked with multiple people in the Gitter but nobody can seem to figure it out.

I am using a shared hosting plan from Godaddy.

I have tried to google errors with no luck and have verified PHP, .htaccess, looks for errors.

EDIT:
I went and disabled the htaccess to see if anything would change and the 500 error became a 404 so I am thinking it is a htacces bug.

i3itCoin removing the .htaccess will obviously result in a 404 because the url won't be redirected to the application anymore. Assuming it's therefor a htaccess issue is incorrect, 500 errors can be throw by both the application and the webserver. In order to identify which is causing the error you have to look at the response headers of the call made. Luckily you posted your installation link, so I could confirm the issue lies with the webserver:

Connection:close
Content-Length:679
Content-Type:text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
Date:Thu, 28 Apr 2016 06:20:17 GMT
Server:Apache/2.4.18

In case the application would have thrown the error, PHP would have been mentioned in here somewhere.

Now that we've established that, looking at your htaccess and running it through an online validator, it works. However I did copy paste the file from your snippet and it added a "view this snippet online in pastebin" at the top. Might you have copied that same line to your flarum installation?

If that does not work you do have to check the error log of apache for either this website or for the server in general to identify the cause as @zegaroid correctly pointed out already.

Visited your site and it seems working to me.

zegaroid The static site works but when it tries to reach the api features like make a post, visit admin pannel, ect... It breaks.

Your .htaccess seems to be fine. Im not really sure but maybe some other can help you solve your problem.

I assume you are using cPanel, Have you check your logs? You can request this from your hosting provider if this directory beyond your account permission.

/usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log

So I called Godaddy. They were useless but I did find out that the "Error" section of cPanel does log Apache handler errors and he recommended I set up some sort of error catcher in PHP to log the 500 errors.

I will try to make this Error logger and I checked and it does not have the "view this snippet online in pastebin" so that's not it.
