Error 500 on new posts after upgrade
 

so upgraded to 4.1.11

nothing weird or anything during the process, have upgraded before with no issues.

but now the forum is generating an error 500 on new posts or replying

the post will show if you go back and refresh the original page

I think it maybe a permissions issue, but I have no clue where or what they should be.

I reuploaded 4.1.11, from scratch, and left the defualt skin and same issue. The permissions on my upgraded forum where mostly 644, now on the fresh install they are 755

The source page of 500 error is blank.

Any ideas?

thanks

That sounds a bit like an error someone else was just having. Did you by any chance also upgrade your php version?

no I have not, been searching since before I posted, other people have experienced it, but I have not seen a real solution

Sounds like a httaccess problem

I have no .htaccess now, I dont think I had one before, is one required now?

No, but I had the same problem before, didn't have one and all was fine, then started with problems like yours.
So i made a .httaccess file in the root and all was good again,
I just put this in it to get it to work:

If that doesn't work for you, try disabling all mods by putting


at the top of your includes/config.php file (just under the <?php on the first line). Also try creating a new style with no parent and see if you're still having the problem.

ok so I disabled hooks,
and that fixed it, so then disabled all the mods, and enabled one by one,

and found that the GlowHost_-_Spam-O-Matic was the cause.
Updated to latest version and still causing the problem

so its off for now, but everything else works

thanks
for the help
