An incorrectly configured `.htaccess` file can lead to a 500 error. Ensure your `.htaccess` file correctly handles URL rewriting for CodeIgniter. Common issues include incorrect rewrite rules, missing modules (mod_rewrite must be enabled on the server), or syntax errors in the `.htaccess` file. Temporarily renaming the `.htaccess` file can help determine if it's the source of the problem.
