title: How to resolve a bad plugin server 500 error wordpress
body: <p>I was just working on a Wordpress site and after updating a plug-in (which had not yet been activated, only installed) I activated it. Instead of the activation working, it gave me this error:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Internal Server Error</p>
  <p>The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete &gt;your request.</p>
  <p>Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@ibsmithmedia.com and inform them of &gt;the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the &gt;error.</p>
  <p>More information about this error may be available in the server error log.</p>
  <p>Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an &gt;ErrorDocument to handle the request.</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>I am getting this error on every page of my wordpress site, not just the plugin page or my user admin area.</p>
  <p>How can I fix this? Is there a way to undo this plugin activation (I'm pretty sure it's what's causing the issue).</p>
  <p>I don't have access to the actual FTP files of the site, I'm working on it for a friend. But I can get access if that's the only way to fix this. Thanks!</p>
