I thought it was, but with the benefit of hindsite, probably not. Read my last post, and that is exactly what happened the first time as well except that I tried to instal MobileDetect before I logged out. It all appeared to be working until I logged out and was unable to get back in again and had the rotten error message. I have checked session.txt in the logs and it correctly shows that I logged in and out as I described. Nothing since then as no page is showing to enable me to log back in. There are several instances in htaccess of things to change in the case of 500 errors. Am I correct in assuming that I should do each of these suggested changes one at a time and each time do a new install of ProcessWire but using the modified htaccess untill I hopefully strike lucky?

As we were getting nowhere fast I took it upon myself to go back to step 1 and see what happens. So I deleted the whole shooting match and started again. The problem is NOT the module. I uploaded the ProcessWire files and jumped through the install hoops via my browser (Firefox) and it finally confirmed my installation was susccessful. Incidentally, one of the confirmations was for the creation of a file with the name of my admin url in it but I could not find it when I looked at the refreshed directories on my ftp website. Next I swapped browsers and tried to access my admin page from a different browser (Chrome). It went to the same stage that my Firefox had been: with the final confirmations of setup, and the option to go to my admin page if selected. So I did select and once I had put in my username and password it went to the normal operating page of ProcessWire (it said that I was logged in at the top). All well and good so far? Well.... I next logged out of ProcessWire and closed Chrome and Firefox. Then I opened both Chrome and Firefox and both gave the same error message, the same as before: The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. So I still cannot get into (or even see) my ProcessWire site. Is it my imagination or does this smack of htaccess problems? I

Did that. No change. I've checked with my site host and they say that the've not done anything. I've got a question: When I installed ProcessWire i had to give a URL, username, password, email address etc. The URL I gave was just a word changed from the default processwire. Let us say I put xmas. When I now look in the ProcessWire directory and subdirectories on my site there is no mention of xmas. So when I try and access mydomain/renamedprocesswire/xmas/ we get the error message mentioned previously. Is something missing or am I doing something wrong? mydomain/renamedprocesswire/xmas/ was the hyperlink from the setup completion page to my admin log-on and it did briefly work this morning.....

I've done the above. Yes it was all working before I tried installing the module (I couldn't have installed it without being in my Admin pages). I've renamed the MobileDetect folder with an x as suggested. I've enabled debugging in config.php. I then tried to get into my admin page. and I got the usual error: Error: Class 'Mobile_Detect' not found (line 67 of /blah/blah/blah/site/modules/MobileDetect/MobileDetect.module) In the errors.txt log page there is a long list of instances of the same error as above and nothing else except that the last two are showing a user 'guest' and all of the rest had my superadmin username How about if I delete all of my ProcessWire installation (having first saved my modified htaccess, then reinstall it and check it works. Then transfer all the MobileDetect module files and all of the ones to go in the lib folder, and then try and install the module via admin?

I downloaded Mobile-Detect-Master.zip and unzipped it. I put all of those unzipped files etc.in the lib directory. When I go to my Admin log-on page I still get: The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. So I still can't get into ProcessWire any more.

DaveP, I should add that with reference to my last post, in the Error Handling section I do not know how to 'initialize and update the submodule'. Is that what you were originally referring to?

Thanks for a quick reply DaveP. I am a little perplexed by your reply having looked at the site you referred me to. I have downloaded the zip file Mobile-Detect-Master.zip and unzipped it. Are you suggesting that I put all of these unzipped files in the lib directory? Two things before I do anything. 1. FYI I've looked in my /blah/blah/blah/site/modules/MobileDetect/lib/ directory and it would be a familiar site to old Mother Hubbard: it's empty, which is as I suspect you guessed. 2. Please take a look at http://modules.processwire.com/modules/mobile-detect/ which is where I downloaded it from. I followed these directions to the letter. If you scroll down towards the bottom of the page you will see a section called Error Handling which seems to bear a strong resemblence in part to my problem?

I am a newby to ProcessWire and to PHP. I want to change my html designed website to dynamic and to have it show differently on mobiles, desktops etc. Within my website I already use TNG software (PHP) which dynamically generates genealogy pages. I have installed ProcessWire in a renamed directory in the root of my website (I had to uncomment and edit line 127 to RewriteBase /********/ to get the install to work). I then decided to add the module MobileDetect. I carefully followed the instructions, creating a directory MobileDetect in the modules directory, and then uploading the unzipped contents of the MobileDetect module download into it. Next I went into admin and hit the module install button and got the error message: Error: Class 'Mobile_Detect' not found (line 67 of /blah/blah/blah/site/modules/MobileDetect/MobileDetect.module) Since that happened, when I try to access my ProcessWire Admin I get an Internal Server error: The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Can anyone help get me back into ProcessWire please?
