Question

I have WAMP server installed in my PC.

Apache Version : 2.2.17
PHP Version : 5.3.5
MySQL Version : 5.5.8

Now i want to deploy the Question2Answer on this wamp.
http://www.question2answer.org/install.php

I have done the follows-
1)

CREATE USER 'masterqa'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '***';

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON * . * TO 'masterqa'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '***' WITH GRANT OPTION MAX_QUERIES_PER_HOUR 0 MAX_CONNECTIONS_PER_HOUR 0 MAX_UPDATES_PER_HOUR 0 MAX_USER_CONNECTIONS 0 ;

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `masterqa` ;

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `masterqa` . * TO 'masterqa'@'localhost';

2)

Extracted the zip

qa-config-example.php in the unzipped question2answer folder, and renamed it to qa-config.php

Changed the following

define('QA_MYSQL_HOSTNAME', '127.0.0.1'); // try '127.0.0.1' or 'localhost' if MySQL on same server
    define('QA_MYSQL_USERNAME', 'masterqa');
    define('QA_MYSQL_PASSWORD', 'open');
    define('QA_MYSQL_DATABASE', 'masterqa');

3)
copied the entire folder “question2answer” to the

C:\wamp\www

but when i try

http://localhost/question2answer 

on my browser it shows some error like

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, admin@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

I was also facing the same problem.
I have just deleted the .htaccess file and everything is working fine.
