Since Admin Tools 5.0.0 install php file scanner is failing on two different sites running on different servers with the same message:

<strong>AJAX Loading Error</strong><br/>HTTP Status: 500 (Internal Server Error)<br/>Internal status: error<br/>XHR ReadyState: 4<br/>Raw server response:<br/><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>500 Internal Server Error</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Internal Server Error</h1>
<p>The server encountered an internal error or
misconfiguration and was unable to complete
your request.</p>
<p>Please contact the server administrator at
xxx@domain to inform them of the time this error occurred,
and the actions you performed just before this error.</p>
<p>More information about this error may be available
in the server error log.</p>
<p>Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error
error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.</p>
</body></html>

In addition a third site running on the same shared server as one of the previous two fails with:

<strong>AJAX Loading Error</strong><br/>HTTP Status: 404 (Not Found)<br/>Internal status: error<br/>XHR ReadyState: 4<br/>Raw server response:<br/><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">...

Hello,

thank you very much for your report.
After some tests, we found that old versions of PHP have a bug in the Regular Expression engine, causing PHP to crash.
We removed such scanning rules and we're going to release a new version next week, in the meantime you can download and install the latest dev release
