Apache Internal Server Error 500
Jan 19 '11 at 3:04 wcolbert 5402821 I had same issue using PHP with virtual hosts....no errors (Apache2, Ubuntu). Ended up being missing PHP modules (mysql, json, etc.) –user484474 Aug 7 '11 at 19:57 On ours, it was sending them to the access log (presumably because from Apache's point of view, it was working correctly and merely passing them along, from a deeper layer -- in our case, Passenger/Rails). Just putting this note here in case somebody is scratching their head. –Tom Hundt Jul 8 at 18:29 add a comment| 7 Answers 7 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote accepted The error log usually has the (more) specific error. often it will be permissions denied or even an interpreter that can't be found. This means the fault almost always lies with your script. e.g you uploaded a perl script but didnt give it execute permissions? or perhaps it was corrupted in a linux environment if you write the script in windows and then upload it to the server without the line endings being converted you will get this error. in perl if you forget print "content-type: text/html\r\n\r\n"; you will get this error There are many reasons for it. so please first check your error log and then provide some more information. The default error log is often in /var/log/htt

Aside from that, check out your httpd.conf (apache config) and that will tell you where your logs are being written. –Jonathan Kuhn Oct 3 '14 at 22:40 Have you looked at the cPanel documentation for where cPanel keeps the logs? Doesn't it have a built-in log viewer? –i alarmed alien Oct 3 '14 at 22:41 cPanel does have a built in log viewer, but all it is stating is that the error occurred, not anything related to what caused it. I'm checking with their support staff about it right now though. –Username Oct 4 '14 at 4:38 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote Running Apache2 in a CentOS, you can check the logs with the following command: tail /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log share|improve this answer answered Dec 2 '15 at 18:55 David Dieguez Neto 111 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.

I've migrated a couple sites to a new server internal server error now, and they are now working fine. I've moved all the files and have the database loaded for a third site, and I get "HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request" when I visit the domain with a web browser, but there is nothing in /var/log/apache2/error_log and although the vhost config file says to use the /var/log/apache2/[domain]/error_log for error logging for this domain, there is nothing there either. The other two sites were drupal installs. This one is a wordpress install. Any ideas?

Error 500 most of the time is the result of incorrect databast connection / permissions.

I won't bug you with the gory details here but just want to ask: Did anyone out there ever observe the web browser receiving a "http 500 inernal server error" while NOTHING alike appears in the apache's error and access log? It's currently not about the details here, but just that I believe this strange behavior should already lead into the right direction since I don't believe there are many possibilities where this can happen at all. When this internal server error happens, the PHP scripts continue running just fine without any failure, but of course the result they want to deliver to the browser will never appear, since the browser already thinks about his internal server error being the end of the world as he knows it.

That is, all of our in house applications log to specific directories other than the root Apache log; but if something happens outside the app (say the interpreter crashes), it would get recorded to /var/log/httpd/*. Could this be the case? –Andrew M. Apr 19 '11 at 14:02 That's a very good idea, I will check this. –Roman Blöth Apr 19 '11 at 14:07 add a comment| 6 Answers 6 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote SOLVED: Alas, there is a load balancer controlling the server, and the load balancer was set up to stop connections after 10 seconds of inactivity or so. The problem is solved now. The reason the 500 did not show up in the apache's error.log is that it was the "outer" system (the load balancer) stopping the connection, not the server itself. Thank you all for your ideas and help! Hopefully someone else will find this enlightening some day. Best regards, Ro
