500 Internal Server Errors caused by htaccess [Problem Solved]

Yesterday, I got "500 Internal server error" warning message after I moved my website to a new web host. From Hawkhost to Godaddy web host. My website work normally in old web host but in new web hosting, I can access homepage normally, but I got "500 Internal server error" message when I open pages.
As usually, something like this makes me confused. 500 Internal Server Error is a generic error message, given when no more specific message is suitable. Internal server errors can be caused by a few different things.
After I searched on internet, I founded a post in a forum that help me so much. And the problem SOLVED. Alhamdulillah.
As you are on virtual host you have to tell the server which is your base or rewriting.
I just forget to add RewriteBase / after RewriteEngine on. Actually, I don't know about this :P Hahaha.
This is my old htaccess file.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on # Rewrite URLs of the form 'x' to the form 'index.php?q=x'. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] </IfModule> And this is my new htaccess code: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / # Rewrite URLs of the form 'x' to the form 'index.php?q=x'. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] </IfModule> Do you have same problem? Hopefully it can be helpful for you. :D
