Installing Joomla

    Hi, can someone please help! I am still kind of new to any type of web development and I am having trouble installing Joomla. I have a subdomain folder I downloaded Joomla into and went through the usual installation steps to set it up. When I get to the end, it tells you to delete the installation folder to continue to the admin for the site. But once I delete the folder, I kept getting '404 forbidden' error message. So i was advised to rename the configuration.php-dist file to just configuration.php. Now I keep getting '500 internal server error'...........Is installing Joomla meant to be this difficult! All help greatly appreciated! wink.gif
    I have already asked this question to two different people in support@blacknight but have not been able to sort it yet. Thanks.

    Does anyone know of a person who knows joomla for putting up items on my website.  Also what would their cost be for say 4 hours work a week.
    This would be in the Laois area, any direction welcome.

    This wouldn't be the best forum to look for that kind of service. You might try advertising for freelancers over on http://freelancejobs.ie/
