End of install pb

Ok I'm new to this, here what I've done :
- Download the serendipity-0.6-pl3.tar.gz file
- Unzip on my local computer
- Upload all the directory content to my provider in the /blog subdirectory : my provider is free.fr, french provider which support php/mysql without any problem (I've already installed nuke or other php programs and it worked, so I'm sure they're OK)
- run http://mylogin.free.fr/blog/ : it tells me it's not installed, send me to the config screen and all seems ok
- At the end, it says ok, click here to access your blog
- I click and I always have :
http:500 Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Apache1.3.29 - ProXad [Jun 9 2004 15:20:10] Server at kasimodem.free.fr Port 80

I've deleted all the files, cleared the database with phpmyadmin, and reinstalled all many times without success, each time it's the same

What could happen ?
Thanks for your help

Just discovered that if I delete the .htaccess file in the directory, it seems to work
Is it normal ?
I'm a little lost ...

Hi!

The problem there are two directives in your htaccess file, which s9y generates but cause trouble. If possible, please use the latest CVS snapshot and try again; we have fixed this issue there.

As a hotfix, just edit the .htaccess file and remove the two 'php_value' directives...

Regards,
Garvin.

Thanks for the answer.
- I deleted all the files and the base on my server.
_ I downloaded this :
s9y_200408091337.tar.gz today, 13:37 839.05 KB
- I uploaded it

But it's the same result, I have to del the .htaccess file to avoid http500.
Anyway it works and moreover I get the french translation in this release, so it's better.
