Hello:) ... Is it possible to get Jamroom to work with Apache 2.4?

I was able to install jamroom but I couldn't get past the first page -- all pages other than the home page came up with a 500 sever error. I contacted my webhost and they asked me to find out if the htaccess file could work with Apache 2.4.

Hi @breeogle, welcome to the forum!

Yes, Jamroom works fine with Apache 2.4.

If you want to try out Jamroom and your host isn't suitable check out the hosted option:
https://www.jamroom.net/hosting

In the past I set up some sites on hosting which needed me to change this (in the .htaccess file):
Options +FollowSymLinks
to this:
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
so you could give that a try.

Tried it but no luck... I reviewed the server requirements, and I believe I'm good. ... Any other suggestions?

No other suggestions, sorry.

If your hosts have an unusual mod_rewrite config you will need them to tweak the server, or try another server. Jamroom works pretty much everywhere although you will need good quality hosting if you are using audio and video processing.

breescorner:...all pages other than the home page came up with a 500 sever error.....
500 errors are "Internal Server Error" s.

They indicate that the server tried to do something, but couldn't.

These errors are logged to the servers error_log and will tell you exactly what the issue is.

My guess would be like @ultrajam suggested and is probably a mod_rewrite issue, but don't take my guess for gospel, check out the server's error logs and paste the end of them here, we might be able to help identify the issue.
