Step 1) - 500 error

I am trying to install it on HostGator's shared hosing account, but at the very beginning of the steps, I got stuck.

I comment out each by each in .htaccess, but I coud not figure out which line is causing this. Here is a log from the server.

[Thu Jun 5 14:52:21 2008] [alert] [client 70.21.xxx.xxx] /home/my_user_name/public_html/my_domain/.htaccess: RewriteRule: cannot compile regular expression '^([0-9A-Za-z\\-_]*)/?([0-9A-Za-z]{12})(/[^\\/]*|)(\\.html?|$)$'\n

Can anybody help me?

Thank you very much.

I'm not sure if you're allowed to run scripts like this with hostgator.

Hello. HostGator responded to my question.

The server is throwing this error:
[Thu Jun 5 17:25:41 2008] [alert] [client 216.110.xxx.xxx] /home/my_account/public_html/my_domain/.htaccess: RewriteRule: cannot compile regular expression '^([0-9A-Za-z\\-_]*)/?([0-9A-Za-z]{12})(/[^\\/]*|)(\\.html?|$)$'\n

The error is coming from .htaccess in the root directory. But, I think this is the original file that I got from SibSoft. Does anybody know solution?

Thank you very much

Now, I do not see any 505 error.

What is the correct result when I try to open "/files/index.html"?

HostGator's shared server shows "XFS" text on a plain page. My another server showed download dialog window.

As you know, I can use only one key. I am worried about which server is working right. Of course, I would like to use HostGator's if possible.

Thank you.
