The Ultimate Guide to Fixing the 500 internal server error

The dreaded 500 errors. ☠️ They always seem to come at the most inopportune time. 😫 Tune in to learn the different types of 500 errors as well as how to troubleshoot them!

Any error on your site that is labeled with a number between 500 and 599 is an indication that your server is incapable of performing a given request for some reason.

When you visit a website your browser sends a request over to the server where the site is hosted. The server takes this request, processes it, and sends back the requested resources (PHP, HTML, CSS, etc.) along with an HTTP header. The HTTP also includes what they call an HTTP status code. A status code is a way to notify you about the status of the request. It could be a 200 status code which means “Everything is OK” or a 500 internal server error code which means something has gone wrong.

No reason to worry! This guide will explain the different types of 500 errors, and teach you how to fix them. Tune in!

Thank you so much. I had the 500 error and could not figure out what could be wrong, tried everything, and then on watching your video I realized that I had forgotten to set my PHP server config on the new website I'm doing to allow more memory & variables. Changed it and 500 error GONE!
Thank you so much, and your video is awesome, to the point and very informative. Keep up the great work!
