    Hi, all -

    I installed Hive yesterday, and everything seemed to be working fine. I only have two blogs set up on it. I added a few other plugins yesterday - couldn't add them automatically, as the install page would hang up when trying to extract the files. I had to use FileZilla to upload them manually to my plugins folder.

    This morning, I can go to the "Add New" plugins page, but if I try to click "install" on any of them from the first blog, I get taken to a blank page with just the wp menu bar across the top. If I try it from the second blog, I get "Error 500 - Internal server error."

    I'm sorry if I'm not describing the problem well - I'm not super tech-savvy, but this was supposed to be an "easy" way to add multiple blogs on one installation. I've had nothing but trouble from it - the first time I installed it, it broke my entire site. Now this.

    Update:

    My apologies - it was my webhost having trouble with their databases, not my site that was broken. I'm on 1and1 hosting. Switching soon.
