titanv Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 About two weeks ago I upgraded my Prestashop version from 1.4.x to 1.5.x and I was consistently receiving "Error 500" / "Internal Server Error" error's after doing various tasks in the back office and front (navigation, updating modules etc). It finally hit me about a week ago to make sure the PHP version I was using was the latest I could use. For my particular host and plan I have to place a directive in my .htaccess file directing my installation to use the latest PHP available on my server (PHP 5.3 in my case). Since I added that directive I have had no further errors of this nature (a week later). I hope this information helps. * My previous PHP version was 5.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanv Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 Just recently, I was able to reproduce this error quite faithfully unfortunately. The problem was being introduced when I was using an addon that allowed me to place a block allowing custom HTML (that doesn't get verified by Prestashop backend). The problem didn't come from the addon itself, but from me as I was forgetting to check my code after I was done and found that tags were being left open for some reason along with some of the closing brackets nowhere to be found as well. After closing my tags, and running and re-running the pages with these scripts on them I found my errors to be gone once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
