500 Internal Server Error

[marvso]

I changed the permissions of my public_html file to 777, but then changed them back to 775 due to the server error that caused. However, I am still getting a 500 error for my site. I have tried clearing my cache/flushing my dns, but that didn't solve the problem.

Thank you for any assistance!

Hello,

I believe the public_html folder is supposed to be CHMOD 750. Also, do you have any folders below public_html CHMOD 777? If so, they should be 755, and files 644. If that doesn't work, please post the contents of the .htaccess file you have in the public_html directory. If using cPanel file manager you'll need to enable the viewing of dotfiles to see it.

Thanks.
