 * 500 has a bunch of reasons, do you have access to the weblogs?
 * If so, post the last few entries in the server’s/websites -error.log and that
   will be a huge help.

 * My website is hosted on Amazon cloud service. Where can I find weblogs ?

 * in linux you can ssh into the server using any ssh client and the pem security
   file. From there, you can do the following;
 * **sudo su
    cd /var/log/apache2 ls -l |grep error  (that will show you all your
   error files). Not sure if there broken by host name, etc. Once you know what 
   file you want, you can do;
 * **tail -n 20 filename** and it will spit out a bunch of stuff.
 * Now on Windows, simply RDP into the box, goto windows explorer, navigate to the
   IIS logs and take the latest one. Haven’t used windows in a while, but normally
   there under c:\inetpub\logs\logfiles. From there you may have a few folders based
   on how many vhosts you have, but look around in there, you will find them.
 * That should be enough to get you started …

 * Yeah, I got all the error log files on SSH client, now what should be my next
   step, Please ? Shall I remove these files or what ?

 * since you have access to the box, I would simply do this. Goto the apache2 log
   folder.
 * Type** tail -f \*error\***. That will show a few things, hit enter a few times
   to clear the screen a bit.
 * Then in a browser, hit that URL. Something should be written to that error log
   immediately with your IP, the time and the error. You could also look at the 
   other error logs you have there, but might as well start with the current one.
 * Post back the error and we can probably get it fixed once we know what’s wrong.

 * Yeah, I got the error. There was something “<” in my function.php file in line
   236, it showed me this. let me fix this first.
    If it doesn’t work, will get 
   back to you.
 * Thank you so much buddy.. 🙂
