I recently upgraded my wordpress installation to the latest 2.5.1 and then I upgraded my forum Installation to the latest as well. However anytime I try to navigate the forum or even try to click on the little help circles in the forum admin panel I get this error:
[an error occurred while processing this directive]
Also if I try to check for a forum update or change any settings I get the “aha 500 error”
My site is restricted from viewing by non-registered users or else I would send you a link but I have set up a temporary account and I will PM you the link and the username and pass if you'll help out
Thanks

I also noticed that my calendar plugin is giving the same error. So I did a little digging and it appears that my host provider has moved from php4 to php5 without telling me. I'm thinking this may be the source of the error but does anybody have any thoughts on this?

no, that should not cause any issues… your host is actually behind the times… the forum works just fine with php5… in fact, we have to go to some lengths to keep it working with the old php4…
if you can pm the info to yellowswordfish and Mr Papa, one of us can check it out and see if anything sticks out…

That's a 500 error being reported there. I would talk to your host as well - it's more likely a problem that end.

missed the 500 part… check the permissions on your files… some hosts throw 500's if permissions are too low for .php files…

Here's my error log for this particular domain. I'm posting here because I noticed some of the errors deal with the forum software. Thanks again for all the great help:
[Long error log entry removed by forum admin]

I removed the error log.
I think it's plain from that though that you have some serious database issues. The majority of those errors were coming from core Wordpress db lookups as well as a variety of plugins - including the forum.
I would be tempted to return to a baqckup prior to your upgrade and then check everything, repair the database if needed and start again. Simple:Press Forum is not the only plugin that seems to have database fields missing.

OK I tried a fresh install of WP using a new database yes I lost all my previous info but I left the old database in tact in hopes that I could at least copy my old forum info and posts to the new one. If you could tell me the steps required to do this if it's not too difficult that would be great. Thanks

Well you can use a tool like phpmyadmin to export the data from selected tables. This will create a text file that can them be imported. But there are some snags….
if the WP table prefix is different then the itermediate file will need editing to change all occurrencies of the old prefix to the new.
If the domain url is different then likewise as above.
And as to the forum, all the forum specific tables start with the letters 'sf' but… there is also data in the WP Options table (all keys starting 'sf') and the WP Users and usermeta tables whicgh cntain all user data…
