500 internet server error

I was troubleshooting a website and then deactivated all plugins in wordpress and now I am getting a 500 internet server error
across the board.

Can you help please?

Derek

Hi Derek,

It looks like the following line in your .htaccess file is causing issues (the server doesn't know how to interpret it):

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^(/(.+/)?feed/?|/(?:.+/)?embed/|/(index\.php/)?wp\-json(/.*|$))$ [NC]
I've gone ahead and commented it out for you to get the site working again. I saw a few more complex lines in there that look to have come from the wp-rocket plugin, so perhaps there's a way of turning off .htaccess optimizations in its configuration.

Hi Joe, I clicked on the WP rocket icon again in the plugins directory and ...again.....it has taken me to the 500 internet server error.

I am guessing this is just a problem plug in. Is it possible to please deactivate it again and get us up and running again.

Thank you

Derek
