<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>

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>
