Comment it out and it should fix it.
I have a client with Drupal
installations in sub directories as
well as the root directory on
BlueHost and none of them need
RewriteBase set.

<blockquote type="cite">Thanks
for all the info. As usual the
devil is in the detail. Let
me try to explain exactly what
I did. <br>
1. I didn't want to move our
email from yahoo so I started
asking Bluehost how to go
about doing that. They said
and I quote<i> "Changing your
name servers to Bluehost
would interrupt your mail
unless you change your MX
records with us to point to
Yahoo before you change the
nameservers.I went ahead and
made the MX record change on
our end, you can change the
nameservers at anytime.</i>"<br>
<br>
They also said (different dude
10 hours later).<br>
<i>"You can change the hosting
of just the website to us by
pointing just the a record
of the domain to <a href="tel:66.147.244.79" value="+16614724479" target="_blank">66.147.244.79</a>.
This will change the domain
but not the mx entries."</i><br>
2. So I changed only the
A-Record from yahoo to the ip
address mentioned. Not the NS
records on network solutions.<br>
3. Then got the error
mentioned. Got to home page
but no further. 500 errors.<br>
4. Looked in the .htaccess and
saw the line<br>
RewriteBase /~polamor1/<br>
I suspect that this may be
wrong and I have to comment
this line out but due to my
ignorance can not justify
based on logic. <br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">First
thing to do - make sure
that your computer is
going to the correct<br>
IP. From a command window:<br>
<br>
nslookup <a href="http://example.com" target="_blank">example.com</a><br>
<br>
If the IP is right then
check your server error
logs. A 500 error is not<br>
a DNS error. It actually
comes from a webserver
(see RFC 2616). As long<br>
as you are going to the
right server, then the big
hint will lie within<br>
the server's error logs.<br>
<br>
Also make sure you have a
CNAME set up:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://example.com" target="_blank">example.com</a>. A
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx<br>
<a href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank">www.example.com</a>. CNAME
<a href="http://example.com" target="_blank">example.com</a>.<br>
<br>
You need to CNAME www. to
your A record or it won't
work since www. is<br>
viewed as a subdomain.
This wouldn't lead to the
error (you would just<br>
get a server not found
error - no HTTP error
codes), but it does
prevent<br>
future problems of people
who want to use the www.<br>

Just add a line with
IP address and the URL
you want it to take
over. Just make sure
you remove it,
otherwise you might
not notice problems in
the future.<br>
