500 internal server


Recommended Posts

Hiya,

 

I have to manually upgrade from 1.4.3 to 1.5 but keep running into that error so thought i'd ask on here and hopefully someone will have an idea :)

 

What i did so far:

 

Created a folder /prestashop/ under my current shop domain --->

 

Changed the path in the settings.inc.php file under /config/ in my main shop to /prestashop/ -->

 

Then i went to /prestashop/install/upgrade/upgrade.php and it asked for the settings.inc.php file so i added the same settings.inc.php file from the main shop under the new one and then tried to reload the page which results in a 500 internal server issue.

 

I'm baffled but more likely doing something wrong?

 

Anyone have an idea or has done a manual upgrade with 1.5 yet? The doc for manual upgrade is confusing by the way.

maybe you have an access to server logs? You find there where the problem occur.

 

In most cases 500 internal server error is compared with problems with .htaccess file. You can solve this problem by removing the file .htacces or remove from it only illegal directives.

 

Just backup this file and delete it from server. Next regenerate it in prestashop back office

the problem has been resolved. For those that get the same error and don't know what to do:

 

In settings.inc.php there is a line:

define('_PS_CACHING_SYSTEM_', 'CacheFS');

which needs to be changed to

define('_PS_CACHING_SYSTEM_', 'CacheFs');

 

And that was it :) Hard to believe such a small thing can screw it all up hehe.
