I'm building a wordpress but something is wrong. When I go to my website it's telling me:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request. Please contact the server
administrator to inform of the time the error occurred and of anything
you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error
log.
But strangely enough I can visit my admin panel with wp-admin. I can't see a .htacces file in my root, but normally when you go to permalinks and press save that file is made automatically but can't see it? In filezilla I've the right settings so there are now hidden files.
Also I've increase the memory and disabled all plugins. When I select another theme in wordpress it works!
What could be wrong? Obviously there is something wrong with the .htacces file.

I checked on the internet, everyone asks login to word press. but the same error above occurs when I log in. Can anyone please help me? I am stuck with my work.
I had changed the permalink of the site. after that, the problem occurred. Is there any way to change it without logging?
There can really be a number of issues, but these are paramount.
.htaccess problems
A plugin you are using
Your hosting provider.
SOlution:
Access your hosting platform via FTP(Cpanel) and rename your current .htaccess(you must set hidden files to show in cpanel to see .htaccess) file to .htaccess-backup. then try logging in, WP will generate a new .htaccess.
If this does not work.
Rename your plugins folder to 'plugins.backup' and try logging in again. If you get to login, the problem is with one of your plugins. Reactivate your plugins one after the other and watch its effect.
Talk to your host.
In my wordpress project I use this theme "Newspaper". This theme allows me to use plugin "TagDiv Composer". Every time I activate this plugin I get 500 Internal Server Error.

I can see my website online without any problem, but I can't access wp-admin. If I deactivate this specific plugin everything is back to normal.
I have tried to deactivate all the plugins and activate them again, increase the memory from 64M to 128M, update the wordpress version to the latest. Finally I tried the same theme with the same plugin in another Wordpress project and I didn't have any problem (at least till now).
Any ideas or any help would be very helpful!
Check this guide on the developer forums: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ Such issues usually mean wrong memory allocation. You can also contact the theme author to get support.
Yesterday I was working on a WordPress site, and it was perfectly working. And now today when I logged in through login details the blank page is appearing with this error:
Could not retrieve data.
I don't know what's wrong in that, suddenly it stopped working.
You could always take the usual steps :
Deactivate all plugins to see if one of them is causing the problem (you can do that by removing their folders from the wp-content/plugins directory).
You can also check your server logs, it might give you information, maybe a database connection problem ?
I've seen some other people with the same issue on net,
but the solution that worked for them (updating the .htacess file), didn't go very well for me!
I used buddypress to migrate my wordpress site to my local pc, but after everything is setup, only the home page is working, other posts or pages are getting 404 errors, I also tried to deactivate plugins and changing the theme, but nothing worked.
I'm on windows 10 and i'm using wampserver 2.5.
I think that the issue is caused by Apache, but I don't know how to fix it!
my Apache version is 2.4.9
Thanks in advance guys :)
Your site’s permalink (WordPress Admin > Settings > Permalink) is set as Default, please change it to any of the other option available below. e.g: Day and name, Post name etc.
Then you’ll be able to access the board instead of the 404 error.
Another way is troubleshooting:
WordPress sites can complicate the 404 troubleshooting process. Why? WordPress is a content management system that processes its own internal rewrite array as a part of its permalinks feature.
The first step to troubleshooting 404s is to figure out whether the 404 is being caused by the web server or by WordPress.
Static file
If your file is static (e.g. a jpg image) open your FTP client and verify that the file exists.
As an example, let’s say that the URL http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/picture.jpg is producing a 404 error. You will want to:
Open FTP Client and connect to your server (if you don’t know how to do so, read this.)
Navigate to the file’s location
Verify that the file exists
If it is does not exist, you have found the source of your 404.
However, it it does exist, yet pulling the URL up in a browser results in a 404 error, continue on to find out whether the issue is web server-based or WordPress-based.

I was just working on a Wordpress site and after updating a plug-in (which had not yet been activated, only installed) I activated it. Instead of the activation working, it gave me this error:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete >your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster#ibsmithmedia.com and inform them of >the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the >error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an >ErrorDocument to handle the request.
I am getting this error on every page of my wordpress site, not just the plugin page or my user admin area.
How can I fix this? Is there a way to undo this plugin activation (I'm pretty sure it's what's causing the issue).
I don't have access to the actual FTP files of the site, I'm working on it for a friend. But I can get access if that's the only way to fix this. Thanks!
I would get access and delete the plugin.
That would be the fastest solution.
I ended up having to delete the folder for the plugin and then going to my htaccess file and remove extra lines that the plugin had added there as well. That resolved the issue.
First you need to connect to your website using FTP client, or File Manager in cPanel. Once connected, you need to navigate to the /wp-content/ folder.
Inside wp-content folder, you will see a folder called plugins. This is where WordPress stores all plugins installed on your website.
Right click on the plugins folder and select Rename. Change the name of the plugins folder to anything that you like. In our example, we will call it “plugins.deactivate”. Once you do this, all of your plugins will be deactivated.
Usually, this method is used when you are locked out of your admin area. If the issue was with your plugins, then you should be able login to your WordPress admin area.
Once you do that, go back to your /wp-content/ folder and rename “plugins.deactivate” back to plugins.
Now you can activate one plugin at a time until your site breaks again. At which point, you will know exactly which plugin caused the issue.
