I'm completing the YAF setup. I get to the page that test your database connection and SMTP connection. Database is fine but not SMTP. I click next. It ask for the password then I get to the plugin upgrade page. I click next and get internal error 500. It's now on the url: http://localhost/yafnet/Default.aspx. Any ideas how to fix this?

Additionally, given at what step the error is happening - is this a 'new' install - and if so, are you checking "Upgrade BBCodes"? New installs should not check Upgrade BBCodes - the install will fail at that step.
