Title: Plugin causes server internal problem, error 500 Last modified: May 18, 2018 --- # Plugin causes server internal problem, error 500 * Resolved [dago](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debesyla/) * (@debesyla) * [8 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/) * Hey * When plugin is enabled, it causes internal server errors on frontend (not in / wp-admin/). * [Sat May 19 01:04:21.536615 2018] [core:error] [pid 30259:tid 140544856463104][ client xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:29857] End of script output before headers: index.php [ Sat May 19 01:04:29.591989 2018] [fcgid:warn] [pid 30259:tid 140544992831232]( 104)Connection reset by peer: [client xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:11949] mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server * It seems it started after my wordpress setup was copied from one hosting to another. * I am not sure if this is plugin fault? Or my hosting? What should I do? wp-typography worked perfectly before.

Is the `memory_limit` set high enough? Is there any output in the PHP error log (the lines you posted seem to be from the web server’s log). * Plugin Author [pepe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pputzer/) * (@pputzer) * [8 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/#post-10364367) * Hello [@debesyla](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debesyla/)! * Have you been able to resolve the server issue? * Thread Starter [dago](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debesyla/) * (@debesyla) * [8 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/#post-10383662) * PHP Version: 7.0.28 memory_limit 256M * Nothing in php error log :/ * Plugin Author [pepe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pputzer/) * (@pputzer) * [8 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/#post-10383714) * Some avenues for further investigation: - Is error logging really enabled? - Have you checked if it is really only wp-Typography (i.e. by disabling all other plugins and switching to a default theme)? - You might also try to [enable `WP_DEBUG`](https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress) temporarily. * Still, an internal server error looks like a problem with your hosting environment. PHP 7.0 should be fine. * Thread Starter [dago](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debesyla/) * (@debesyla) * [8 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/#post-10383785) * Yes, it is really enabled and it’s only this plugin. What kind of server settings this plugin needs? My hosting support are asking for this 🙂 * Plugin Author [pepe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pputzer/) * (@pputzer) * [8 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/#post-10383818) * Nothing special, really. The `mbstring` extensions and PHP >= 5.6. You might try increasing the memory limit to 512M just to make sure it is not an OOM situation, but 256M should be fine in almost any circumstances. * Are you sure there no must-use plugins or drop-ins enabled (object caching etc.)? They might be enabled by default by your hosting provider (if it’s not a “root” server). * Another thing you could try (but with proper logging, there should be a trace in the PHP error log if there was any problem with transients caching) is clearing the cache in the in the backend. * Plugin Author [pepe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pputzer/) * (@pputzer) * [8 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/#post-10383849) * Also, as a blind guess, you might be triggering a PHP bug in the specific circumstances. Can you switch to PHP 7.1 or 7.2 to check for that? This looks like a core dump situation, and that should never be caused by a programming error in a script, but only by a bug in the PHP engine itself. * Plugin Author [pepe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pputzer/) * (@pputzer) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/#post-10671628) * [@debesyla](https://wordpress.org/support/users/debesyla/) Have you been able to fix the issue? * Plugin Author [pepe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pputzer/) * (@pputzer) * [7 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-causes-server-internal-problem-error-500/#post-10709750) * I assume the issue has been resolved.
