Title: 500 Internal Server Errors
Post by: Grahamm on 06 June 2012, 01:31:20 am
Several times this evening I've had a 500 Internal Server Error whilst trying to read posts or reply to them on here.

Anyone else had problems?

It was probably an issue with the host.

Somebody has misconfigured the Apache web server somewhere along the line. That is usually the most common cause of this error. Apache has come across a setting in one of its configuration files that it doesnt understand or can't correctly parse, thus it throws up an error and is unable to serve the page to the unfortunate person who sent the request.

I work in web development so if site owners / web hosts want a hand then let me know. Obviously, if they are anything like me, they like to run their own systems and not let any bugger touch them :P

I'm sure Frazer is on to it. It seems to be intermittent, so it's not down completely.

WTF - IT'S DOING MY HEAD IN TOO  :rolleyes Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@foc-u.co.uk and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Thanks dead eye for the offer. We use a shared hosting company and so don't have direct access to their servers. They are investigating the problem (intermittent ones are always the toughest) and I'll keep you updated.

Nice one Farjo, we now its a tough one.
Title: Re: 500 Internal Server Errors
Post by: Dead Eye on 12 June 2012, 01:55:18 pm
You are more than welcome :)

Unfortunately, this error is nearly always completely independant of the clients operating system, browser and hardware configurations. Its to do with the service being provided by the host. Not much any of us can do until they figure out whats causing the errors. The fact that it is so random is incredibly odd - its more than likely a faulty module...

They say that when the backups run the server overloads which causes the errors, and that they're looking into a fix...

Hmm... Strange, that should cause something more along the lines of a 502 (Bad Gateway), 503 (Service Unavailable) or the most common of these three a 504 (Gateway Timeout). Though to be fair, 500 (Internal Server Error) does serve as a default error if all else fails...
