PHP just could not connect to the MySQL database server. Turned out that localhost by default points to ::1 and not to 127.0.0.1 And MySQL does not listen on the IPv6 localhost IP. You can change this in the %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts file. I spent a long time finding the problem for my 500 error.
