Error loading Magento

[roddy_higgins]

Hi

This is the message I get repeatedly when trying to load Magento through cpanel

Please can you let me know what I've done wrong. I'm just starting my first website and ecommerce platform

Error: 2018-06-07 20:12:57.58503900 FAILURE [3; /usr/bin/curl]  [http code=500] Error: An error occurred while executing the application API.
