500 internal server error, smf forum

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jan 18.2008

hello everyone, im new here….

me and my friend have started a new forum, and every other time it seems like this error will come up:

The server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.
The script had an error or it did not produce any output. If there was an error, you should be able to see it in the error log.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

@skyrider01Jan 19.2008 — Not much to go on there, seems the errors are turned off on the server so you cant see the actual real errors.

if you have access to the source of the page you could try one of these to turn on error reporting temporarily, or maybe there is a way to turn on debugging in the forum script you are using.


// Turn off all error reporting

error_reporting(0);

// Report simple running errors

error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE);

// Reporting E_NOTICE can be good too (to report uninitialized

// variables or catch variable name misspellings ...)

error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE | E_NOTICE);

// Report all errors except E_NOTICE

// This is the default value set in php.ini

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

// Report all PHP errors (bitwise 63 may be used in PHP 3)

error_reporting(E_ALL);

// Same as error_reporting(E_ALL);

ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);

@TheRaveJan 21.2008 — Look at the server error log. You hosting should give you access to the error log which will describe when and where the problem occured.

Success!
