    The HTTP Error 500 is a 'catch-all' error generated by the Web server. Basically something has gone wrong, but the server can not be more specific about the error condition in what it displays in your browser.

    In addition to the 500 error notified back to your browser, the Web server should generate some kind of internal error log which gives more details of what went wrong. It is up to the operators of the Web server site to locate and analyse these logs. You might just need to contact them unless you have direct access to those logs.

    I hate errors like these!

    You'd need to tell us more about what you were doing right up to the point of the error. What was the last thing you changed? Are you installing new software or scripts?
    Often the 500 error is a permissions based problem requiring chmod settings for specific files....but it could be anything....

    500 is often a configuration issue...asking the server to do something it can not

    you will have to diagnose the programming and double check everything

      Check with the webmaster to see if he has an older download of the site files and check the .htaccess file.

      I made a slight modification to .htaccess a few weeks back and began receiving the dreaded 500 Error message, luckily I had made a backup of the old version and simply FTP'd it until I was able to determine what was wrong in the code.

      If he does not have an old version, have him get with your hosting tech support, they should be able to assist him in resolving it.
