I changed "path" value from:

/home/content/s/t/u/stumble/html/dg

to

/home/content/s/t/u/stumble/html/dg/

in elggdatalists table.

Now, the error is:

Dou you know if the godaddy linux server supports mod_rewrite?

Even though GoDaddy supports mod_rewrite, there are some definite peculiarities about their setup, with regards to .htaccess and PHP execution.You might want to contact them.

I guess I should have posted my earlier thoughts, actually I thought i did; The probem of apache 500 errors you experience on go daddy comes from memory consumption on a shared web host, the problem will exist on any shared web hosting service that experiences moderate to heavy traffic.  The solutions include; dedicated and virtual dedicated servers, clusters and clouds.  Does not matter who the host is, if the server gets alot of traffic, heavy sites get errors, though I have not experienced this problem much using elgg it does happen when the server is experiencing heavy traffic.

Blue, I'm telling ya, install elgg 1.6.1 from godady's control pannel on a sub domain, and figure it out from there.

Yes, the godaddy supports mod_rewrite. I verify it just now. Thanks!

Thanks for your help. I will try to install elgg 1.7 according to your suggestion.

The login error caused by wrong password.

Now, I can log in. But there are some other problems.

1. CSS can't be loaded in Firefox 3.5.4. The CSS works fine when I use IE8.

2. The widgets in profile and dashboard can't be loaded. Only the ajax loading gif works continually.

The CSS also can't be loaded in Google Chrome.

The Firebug show me the following infomation.

css.css?lastcache=1266832186&viewtype=default
There are no rules in this stylesheet.

But I don't know how to do.

The test result:

1. localhost, Internet Explorer 8, CSS load properly

2. localhost, Firefox 3.5.4, CSS load properly

3. localhost, Google Chrome 4, CSS load properly

4. godaddy, Internet Explorer 8, CSS load properly

5. godaddy, Firefox 3.5.4, CSS does not load

6. godaddy, Google Chrome 4, CSS does not load

I made a fresh install of Elgg 1.7b on GoDaddy hosting. CSS does not load in Firefox 3.5.4. And there is a error in IE8.

message: syntax error
line: 282
character: 1
code: 0
URI: http://mydomain.com/_css/js.php?lastcache=1266910235&js=initialise_elgg&viewtype=default

The javascript does not work in IE8.

Although it's a fixed bug （http://trac.elgg.org/elgg/ticket/862）, the problem remains.

Here is the description of the problem. http://forums.powweb.com/showthread.php?t=73931
