Can't install joomla 3.4 (blank page)

Question

I've tried installing Joomla 3.4 on to my server(upload .zip and extract everything), but everytime I want to run it, it directs me to "installation/index.php" then the entire page is blank. On the console menu inspect element the error I got is :

"Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)".

I really have no idea what's wrong, also tried changing the file/directory permission, didnt work.

Here is the direct link to my site www.bobaking.co.uk

Here are my server specs:

Apache Version 2.2.29

PHP Version 5.4.33

MySQL Version 5.5.42-cll

Architecture x86_64

Operating System linux

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks a lot!
