I can't see which way .htaccess should be involved right there.

Why don't you follow Arsalan's advice and provide your error log files?

Please make sure your ossn installation have .htaccess file if not you can create a new .htaccess file with the source: https://github.com/opensource-socialnetwork/opensource-socialnetwork/blob/3.x/installation/configs/htaccess.dist

Thanks

Try reuploading the .htacess file that came with OSSN to the root directory of your site.

Did your servers supported apache ? Please provide a necessary errorlog and apachelog file.
