Running clean Drupal 5.0 RC with no extra modules. Only upload module extra activated.

Uploading files is ok.
When trying to open attachment I get an internal server error.
When I delete the .htaccess file in the files directory, the download works ok.
But every time a new file is uploaded, a new .htaccess file is created and the internal server errors are back when trying to download.

It is your .htaccess files that causes your trouble.
Try commenting out all "options" lines in the file -- it helped me. (I had to do it in both the root and the files directory.)

If you need assistance, try http://drupal.org/node/157596 and http://drupal.org/node/153335.

A syntax error in your .htaccess file is one thing that will cause an HTTP 500 Error "Internal Server Error".

Drupal 5 is no longer supported, so if you still have problems with Drupal 6 or higher please open a new issue.
