 * Hi – First off, I apologize for not knowing anything. I see lots of questions/
   responses to Error 500 posts in the forum, but I still don’t understand what 
   I should do.
 * My error says, “Error 500-Internal Server Error. An error was encountered while
   processing your request. Typically this is a temporary condition. Please contact
   the web site owner for further assistance.”
 * I read that I should look at my server error log. I have no idea where that is
   or if I found it how I could read it.
 * Any help is greatly appreciated!!

 * I’ve only been adding posts, which include pictures. What is an example of a 
   change to my server?

 * Unless I accidentally did that, I don’t think I made any changes. Definitely 
   not theme.
 * My website is [http://www.craftimess.com](http://www.craftimess.com).

 * Yes, you are right.
 * You have to gone through your error log file.
 * It generally located in home directory of your site. Or you may contact your 
   host for this too.

 * So I am hosting through Hub and I went to cPanel and looked at my error log. 
   It doesn’t list anything.
 * When I click on the option for Edit Error Pages is says:
 * Editing 500.shtml (Internal server error)
    You are editing the error pages for
   the domain craftimess.com.
 * Select Tags to Insert: choices are
    referring URL visitors IP addres requested
   URL server name visitor’s browser redirect status code
 * I’m obviously very confused. Thanks in advance for your help and patience.

 * For that we have to login to the server to check the issue.
