500 errors and mod_rerwite

Hi,

I'm new to cakePHP after becoming disenfranchised with code igniter. I
followed the blog tutorial and have decided to put it online on a free
hosting (http://theotest.awardspace.biz/) as if it where a production
site ( in experience this is very different form doing on your own
LAMP set up).

The directory structure I'm forced/ would like to used is

/home/www/ (my root)
app
cake
theotest.awardspace.biz/ (my web root)

as I understand this should be perfectly acceptable (and allow me to
share my cake across other sites).

I've modified theotest.awardspace.biz/index.php to:

if (!defined('ROOT')) {
define('ROOT', DS.'home'.DS.'www');
}
/**
* The actual directory name for the "app".
*
*/
if (!defined('APP_DIR')) {
define('APP_DIR', 'app');
}
/**
* The absolute path to the "cake" directory, WITHOUT a trailing DS.
*
*/
if (!defined('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH')) {
define('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH', DS.'home'.DS.'www');
}

When viewing the site I get the summery page looking good with all the
styles (http://theotest.awardspace.biz) but when I click a link I get,

"Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, [no address given] and inform
them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done
that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error
log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while
trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

I understand this could be some thing to do with mod_rewrite and
my .htaccess files and I've tryed alot of things but with no luck.

Thanks in advance.

Theo.
