When changing the username of the admin account I just created after the installation it gives Error 500
BTW: it will allow the login though with the new username after 2 tries.

it is reproduceable every time

I don't think we'll be fixing this error.

A work-around would be:
1. Create another user with site admin rights and then log out.
2. Log in with this new userid.
3. Change the admin account information as necessary and then log out.
4. Log in with the admin account credentials fron step 3.
5. Delete the admin account created in step 2.

Depending on what you REALLY want to do, you might just create the new userid with site admin rights, log in as that user, and delete the old site admin userid.

A final word of caution: BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP

I have the same issue when changing any of the users passwords.
And when logging in with the user name I have just changed after giving this user new password it also gives me internal error on the log in.
I'm able to change the password in the database to get this working again, and using the lost password function, with the cloudy theme, the email never ship and it just hangs on loading data...

Upgraded to v4.2, running on Apache 2.2.8 and PHP version xx
Still getting 500 Internal Server error when updating user password or requesting change of password from the automated email part.
Could this issue be files that exists on the server that should not be there.
I have same version running on different linux server, and on that server I do not get same error. I also have problem assembly the PHPInfo page on the server with problem. Running the cloudy theme.

Thanks for any help.
