Serendipity Forums

Hi,

while i'm migrating my stuff to uberspace.de also, i'm getting also a lot of 500's.
I tried to switch to the oldest available php 5.2 version but got back a internal server error.
With php 5.3.10 and 5.3.21 the main page of the blog loads, but only from time to time. Right now, i'm running 5.3.10 since the "not 500's" are higher, at least from the feeling point of view .

To increase confusion a bit more, a second blog (both are subdomainblogs running with same 1.7.2 setupt as multiblog) is running smooth as hell.

The chance to get a page loaded is much higher in the admin section with one exception, the "configure plugins". Since the plugins are also a bit different from the two blogs, i would like to know where i can quickly disable or enable a plugin without loosing configuration.

Where you able to make some progress on that topic? And, can i simple change back to 1.6.2 without damaging the database (i know, make a backup is good, but "hidden damages" are also possible ).

Thanks in advanced

First to say, I am pleased to see you have found the most possible thread connecting to your issue.

The 1.7 series did not change the database AFAIK (remember), so switching back should not be an issue.

As you can see, the 1.7 Series is doing well on uberspace subs now, so I can only imagine you did not correctly update that staticpage plugin, though I didn't really get which errors you get to happen where. (We have serveral blogs running extremly well there, using high PHP versions and also staticpages.)
This leads me to the suggestion, that you might have a wrong configured subdomain configuration. See also http://board.s9y.org/viewtopic.php?f=3& ... #p10434083

To manually set a plugin as hidden... look into the database for the 'serendipity_plugins' table and set the field 'placement' for that plugin to hidden. This should disable/hide the use of that plugin.

Hi!

Do you have access to the CGI error log of the server? It seems to me that the error could be related to some specific event plugin, or maybe even due to RAM/Memory management.

Is it related to specific pages only, or does every page sometimes work and sometimes not? Or is it only the blog home page? In that case, some plugins like the twitter or facebook or the aggregator plugins sometimes execute tasks (like a cron schedule), this could lead to more memory consumption and thus cause timeout/500 errors...

HTH,

It's not accessible for users on Uberspace by default, but you can ask for access to it. http://uberspace.de/dokuwiki/webserver:error_log

Since i'm in the migration process and currently have paid no money, i have postpone asking for the log until some money is transferred to the account. Without paying some money, i feel bad to ask. I will dig deeper into investigation and keep you updated. I guess next weekend is time for another debugging session .
