You don't even need to sign up. Just use it.

Yah, it does. Delete the file. I don't think this is cause of your problems, but it should not be there. Is there another .htaccess in the directory (or directories) above this one?

I just tested the lastest pmwiki (2.2.54) on one of my Godaddy web hosting plans. Straight out of the box, not modifications at all. The main page should be editable. The response after clicking on the 'save' button is the error you reported: ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE. When I refresh the page and click on the `View` link in page actions, the page is shown, and the editing is in place. I've not used pmwiki on godaddy's shared web hosts before, but I know others have.

I'm going to dig a little deeper here and see what I can find out.
