Hi disco_dan,
It sounds like you’re hitting a memory limit. You can try setting WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT in wp-config.php:
define('WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');
And keep rolling that number up.
I took it all the way up to 1024M with it still crapping out. Do I need to restart wordpress or something?
If you can’t find the error log, you may want to contact your host. If the error isn’t memory related, then this won’t fix it.
You can also try turning on WP_DEBUG and looking in your wp-content/debug.log file.
Hi disco_dan,
Did you get this resolved?
I got the internal sever error to go away. But now I can’t see the ‘Scan Now’ button. Apparently this is a jquery compatibility issue?
If you have a plugin / theme that loads a conflicting version of jQuery or jQuery UI, it can cause this behavior. The two known workarounds are to try and figure out which plugin / theme is causing the problem and fix it or disable it …. or just use key commands.

Now it’s giving me a 404. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin, but to no avail.
Not sure what to tell you on that one. If you’re getting a 404 on that specific URL, then that means “tools.php” is not found. So it may be a mod_security issue?
I can go to tools.php, just not the page=p3-profiler
You have access to server error logs? Have you turned on WP_DEBUG?
