I'm trying to update Modx Evo 1.0.14 to 1.1. After uploading the zip file and unzipping it, I got a server 500 error on both the front-end and the manager. I never got to running the install. Just unzipping the files resulted in the 500 error.
I checked the .htaccess file, didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
I restored all the files from my backup, created just prior to the unzip and the site came back.
I thought perhaps the unzip function failed somehow so I manually uploaded the unzipped files. I uploaded the assets folder, check the front-end, all good. Same after uploading the manager folder. However, after uploading the install folder, the 500 error returned.
Just for kicks, I checked to see if the installer would run and that page came up. I started the install, all the pre-checks were good, so I started it. It confirmed the status on all the extra updaets, then stopped. I tried the manager login, that page appears, but I can't login. It just returns to the login form with no errors.
Now I just noticed that the hostmonster server is running php 5.2.17. Might this cause all of this trouble? If not, anyone have any thoughts about what's going on?

5.2 is not suitable for Evo 1.1 anymore as far as I know. At least managermanager needs 5.4
Iusemodx, thanks for the tip. I will post it on Gihub.
Jako, I figured as much, but what is weird is this server error happened before I ran the install, I had just unzipped the files.
