I'm trying to transfer my Drupal 5 installation to Zymic. After moving files and teh database I got this error as trying to view my site:
Internal Server Error

I looked the forum for solutions but the only one I found was to rename or delete my .htaccess file. I can see the frontpage alright but none of the links work as Drupal needs the .htaccess file.

Any solutions? I also tried it with clean urls disabled but didn't work..

Any help would be appreciated!

The clean install leads to the same Internal server error -message..
Any Drupallers around who could help??

Here is th .htaccess -file in case someone can point out what causes the error...

wpanssi, I installed Drupal but I didn't transfer the .htaccess file so I had no problems at all when I was installing it. It's only when I transferred the .htaccess after I finished the installation did I get the internal server error.

Also, look at this page: http://drupal.org/node/52196

It's a discussion on the same problem.

Many hosts disable certain options or overrides in htaccess files. These include Options and php_value statements.

You can comment out the lines that start with Options and php_value but note that this may affect script operation.

I had a look at the relevant lines and it seems you will be fine (the only issue might be magic quotes). The options it attempts to override are usually the default set by the host (Zymic).

After commenting, this is what it would end up as:
