I can't access my buddypress wp-admin as admin after upgrade, accidental click on deactivate...
After re-activation, wp-admin doesn't access anymore! Please help
I get 500 timeout
I know this is buddypress problem because I have moved "buddypress" folder from wp-content/plugins and only doing so, i can access wp-admin dashboard as admin.

The 500 series of errors almost always puts a specific error in your webserver's error logs. Please check. Also a link to your site would be a plus. Both are always good things to include when asking for help on any support forum.
I can access the site. The problem is only with the wp-admin access. With buddypress, i can't log in as admin.
The time out occurs on the wp-admin page with 500 error message. I think it timed out on the database accessing. i've checked both /var/log and the virtual server's log file and only the virtual server is showing premature end of script mostly. I've let the script run 300secs on the httpd.conf
didn't happen before i accidentally deactivate buddypress. now when i reactivated, things messed up.
That's really odd and I'm sorry you're having such a difficult time. I'll ask a few of the devs more knowledgeable about server and database setups to respond and see if we can get some ideas for ya.

Chances are that your BuddyPress database tables are corrupted in some way. If you don't have any data that you care about there, the easies solution will be to a) Deactivate BuddyPress, b) Remove all "wp_bp_" prefixed tables in the database, c) Reactivate BuddyPress. If that is not on option, try http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-dbmanager/ . Run "Repair DB" and "Optimize DB" tasks - I am not sure whether this will fix the BuddyPress tables though but you should give it a try.
I'm self hosted. Before I try any solutions, what other ways can i find out what is stopping the database from proceeding to execute? I can't find things inside log file. Any other ways to see execution as it happens?

Which error log? I've checked all but it's timeout error... with no continuity.

Hiya Sam,
Are you currently able to access your site?
Am I understanding correctly that without BuddyPress activated it works, but when you activate BuddyPress you get the 500 errors again?
drmike is referring to your server's error logs. Definitely should be something in there.
Thanks!

Anybody else have a suggestion?

Hi @hwong,
What hosting are you using? Can you try deactivating all the other plugins and activate BuddyPress?
