My website shows "Internal Server Error"

Help! (Home for newbies)

Hi, I’m using virtualmin with contabo VPS. I have added a virtual server to install a PHP script that I bought from codecanyon. I have copied those files to public_html and changed config.php permission as per the instruction. The next instruction was to go “/install,” but this shows “Internal Server Error.”
