Internal Error Server

Posted: Sat Jun 06, 2009 6:07 pm

Yesterday I start to test RN 2.3 on a server and I got this message sometimes when I go to the site home. I would like to know what could cause this error? Shocked

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request

A lot of times it has to do with the .httaccess file. Try removing it and see if you get the error.

Is that the only solution. I just wanna know why I got this Internal Sever Error. What could cause this error?

It is not really a solution. If removing the .htaccess makes the error go away, it gives us a starting point. However, figuring out what in the .htaccess is causing the error could be long and drawn out.

I think RN 2.3.0+ has no problem.
Based on this assumption and what you described, running in your server does not seem to process requested http processing during a given time.

This is my suggestion. Try your RN 2.3.0+ in your local machine with experimental AMP such as xampp. If you get the same internal server errors, then your config or RN 2.3.0+ installation is wrong. Otherwise, your server is not fast enough to process requests of running phps.

More tips: most nuke types of php scripts heavily relies on database. This means that your AMP services have separate SQL server (not localhost of your DB server), this kind happens from time to time.

Do you run on the Debian flavor of the OS?

After making lots of tests. Raven Nuke 2.30.01 is not causing this error.
the problem comes from database. Actually the server dont use localhost. Use the IP instead of localhost. I notice database is not so fast as the domain. It takes time to load. Thanks for all your answers. Removing .htaccess doesnt fix the problem. This kind happens from time to time. not always.

Its not any of those things. Without knowing your setup (you dident answer me) I think its a fastcgi problem. I have the same problem. Nobody knows how to fix it.... well there are 100 fixes .. some work for some... some work for others ... and a few get no resolution. Mine is not fixed and it comes and goes and lately its been on the gone side. I dont think its server usage/bogged down problem and I'm more apt to blame it on too many hops. Which I know they say it shouldent matter... but that was my last suspicion.

Its not Nuke and if you tell your host its a nuke problem they will blame it on nuke. Laughing

Don't let them.

There are a number of things that can cause this, some of which have already been mentioned.
Windows servers cannot handle .htaccess files so that another one to add to the list.
Not all servers, regardless of their OS 'allow' htaccess directives (does your php.ini allow them?
Do you have mod_rewrite installed on the server?
