Title: 500 Internal Server Error
Post by: JohnBitCo on January 29, 2022, 10:29:31 AM
I am getting this error quite frequently in the last one hour. Sometimes the site works while other times this error is shown.
What is the meaning of this Error? Am i only having this problem or other users also getting the same issues today?

It is a server error (HTTP status code 5XX) but (00) is generic error that won’t tell you exactly why this it is the problem.
There are many reasons for this problem, but you as a user (Client side) do not need to do anything, refresh the page and the problem will be solved.

Personally, I did not encounter a problem, perhaps it is related to cloudflare, so do not worry too much.

I haven't seen this error, and my scraper (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5167469.0) hasn't missed a single post in the past hours.

I haven't had any problems with the forum for a long time, and since others have the same experiences, I believe that the problem is with you. You can try to do the following things.

  • Clear cookies and cache from your browser.
  • Restart your modem.
  • Try to change the DNS settings in your browser/computer (look for instructions for your browser) and set them to, say, Google DNS 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4.
  • If the problem persists, try contacting your ISP, they may have some issues affecting access to sites outside your country.

This is not a big problem and server related error and have personally encountered it few days back while opening the forum and as you have been able to load it after few hours mine was fast comparitively but this is not a big problem.

There are many reasons for this like @hugeblack have already told you 5xx is the general code for these sort of errors and to add i would say that 200 is the code for that each action was successful but as everything is loaded we can't see this message displayed over our screen.But 400 and 500 are the codes for server related errors

But if you are interested to find out specific errors with the help of decimal point then here is the list for you to have a look at :

Quote
However, if the server has installed Microsoft Internet Information Services (Microsoft IIS), the error code will be specified. Decimal places indicate the cause of the error in more detail:

500.0: Module or ISAPI error occurred.
500.11: Application is shutting down on the web server.
500.12: Application is busy restarting on the web server.
500.13: Web server is too busy.
500.15: Direct requests for global.asax are not allowed.
500.19: Configuration data is invalid.
500.21: Module not recognized.
500.22: An ASP.NET httpModules configuration does not apply in Managed Pipeline mode.
500.23: An ASP.NET httpHandlers configuration does not apply in Managed Pipeline mode.
500.24: An ASP.NET impersonation configuration does not apply in Managed Pipeline mode.
500.50: A rewrite error occurred during RQ_BEGIN_REQUEST notification handling. A configuration or inbound rule execution error occurred.
500.51: A rewrite error occurred during GL_PRE_BEGIN_REQUEST notification handling. A global configuration or global rule execution error occurred.
500.52: A rewrite error occurred during RQ_SEND_RESPONSE notification handling. An outbound rule execution occurred.
500.53: A rewrite error occurred during RQ_RELEASE_REQUEST_STATE notification handling. An outbound rule execution error occurred. The rule is configured to be executed before the output user cache gets updated.
500.100: Internal ASP error

But as user side you can simply come back after some time and the site will be displayed as most probably the reasons are huge traffic at the time or memory overusage but this can be sorted after some time.So don't need to worry about them as they are not major issues and automatically resolved.

But still from your side try clearing cache is the best you can do at the moment you face this error and reload the site then again and it might load the site then.But if you want some more information check this : HTTP 500 server error guide (https://www.ionos.com/digitalguide/hosting/technical-matters/http-error-500-internal-server-error/)

I didn't see any error either on my PC as well as on my smartphone even on different browsers. i faced this kind of error while using Opera in the past but since moved to Chromium it never existed so it must be related with the browser not actually the website if I am not wrong.

I had the problem yesterday, but it didn't last long and it didn't recur. It didn't take more than 3 minutes if I'm not mistaken. Try pressing your keyboard CTRL+F5 a few times, it might work. But today I have no problem. About you, it will be resolved soon.

Yes, it was resolved the same day. I didn't know the cause due to which this error was coming. Restarting the system did not help either but when i checked later in the evening, the issue was not appearing anymore. It may be something to do with my internet. Anyways thanks to everyone for their advice. Locking this thread now.
