   To anyone trying to get Omeka working with 1and1.com Hosting service. I had to modify the .htaccess files in both the root folder and the admin folder to include these lines:

   # added specifically for 1and1.com
   AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
   AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php

   Those lines force the 1and1 servers to use the PHP5 libraries.

   However, I see that 1and1 servers are ignoring the directives in this part of the htaccess file:
   php_value display_errors 1
   php_flag zlib.output_compression On
   php_flag register_globals off
   php_value zlib.output_compression_level 5

   because the 1and1 servers aren't loading mod_php5.c. I'm not sure what they're loading and I also believe those 'php_' directives are OK to be skipped.

   Added those, still not working.

   install ran, I get the 'main' page, but all the links give 500 errors.

   Thoughts? Suggestions?

   Thanks!

   As Jonlesser pointed out in a previous thread about install problems,

   is your httpd.conf file on your server allowing htaccess overrides? This can often be off by default. You'd want to look for the AllowOverrides directive.

   Are you working on the same project as forum user awhs on 1and1 hosting, or are these two separate situations? I want to be clear on what server specs we're dealing with to troubleshoot these problems.

   Thanks.

   You could try modifying the .htaccess file in the root of your Omeka installation with the same AllowOverride directive as you would have put in the httpd.conf file, and let me know if that works.
