The site was working, but during some upgrades in the past month or so it broke. I tried: + I have a custom theme & plugins, and I tried disabling and removing as much as I could. + I added “define(‘ WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘128M’);” to wp-config.php + my php.ini has “memory_limit = 128M” + I added “define (‘WPCF7_LOAD_JS’, false);” to wp-config.php – just to get a white page with error 500 + I made sure my form has a valid ‘From’ address using a domain email * I do not know where to look for more error info on the server side, it all seems ok. * Is there a way to get a log from cf7? * Thanks in advance, Ellie. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Plugin Author [Takayuki Miyoshi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/takayukister/) * (@takayukister) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-500-504/#post-5183340) * Have you checked PHP error log? * Thread Starter [EllieUpupa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ellieupupa/) * (@ellieupupa) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-500-504/#post-5183357) * Yes, I have seen on access_log: [12/Aug/2014:14:30:24 +0000] “POST / HTTP/1.1” 500 – but nothing on error_log 🙁 * btw, I am using WP3.9.2 on ubuntu ec2 instance * Thread Starter [EllieUpupa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ellieupupa/) * (@ellieupupa) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-500-504/#post-5183361) * In addition, I have removed the “contact-form-7/” folder and reinstalled cf7, retained all my settings but with same error! * [undergroundnetwork](https://wordpress.org/support/users/undergroundnetwork/) * (@undergroundnetwork) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-500-504/#post-5183447) * I am getting the same error… everything worked fine and then after a couple updates it no longer allows me to submit. I get a server 500 error as well. I have disabled all plugins except for contact 7 with the same resulting error. * [Error] Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error) (underground.net, line 0) * [http://underground.net](http://underground.net) scroll down to contact form * [undergroundnetwork](https://wordpress.org/support/users/undergroundnetwork/) * (@undergroundnetwork) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-500-504/#post-5183611) * I found the problem and the solution. I had upgraded Easy WP SMTP plugin and it lost all its settings (a noted problem with this last update), which is why Contact 7 could no longer send. Went in and added back the settings in Easy SMTP and all is good. * [nimiwal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nimiwal/) * (@nimiwal) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-500-504/#post-5183615) * I am also getting same error on all my websites running on WP 3.9.2 hosted with Godaddy. If I update any 3.9.1 site to 3.9.2, it also starts displaying 500 Internal Server Error after some time. * Thread Starter [EllieUpupa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ellieupupa/) * (@ellieupupa) * [11 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-error-500-504/#post-5183688) * Still having this problem! * Upgraded to WP 4.0, CF7 3.9.3 * Got WP-Mail-SMTP configured with gmail account, test email works great. * When submitting I get Server error 500: HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error Date: Sun, 07 Sep 2014 13:03:22 GMT Server: Apache X-Powered-By: PHP/5.4.17 Content- Length: 0 Connection: close Content-Type: text/html Pragma: no-cache Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0 Expires: Tue, 01 Jan 1971 02:00: 00 GMT * Is there anything else I can try/test? * Thanks in advance, * Ellie.
