A 500 status code just means an error happened. IE usually displays a "friendly" error page (there's nothing friendly about an error, btw) which hides the actual error message from the server. If you're using IE to test, either find an option to disable the friendly error messages or use another browser so that you can see the actual error message and the line that it happens on. IE's default error page doesn't give any information that is useful for fixing the problem.
