look through ur php error log.

 

[iman24]

u mean error log file located in file manager ?

[Cometolearn]

if u are using wordpress create new .htaccess file , or chechk ram is not full

 

[iman24]

how to check ram, cpu and all stats in Kloxo panel ?

 

[Cometolearn]

login in ssh and type "free -m"

 

[MovieHost]

@iman24 what platform using the site?

 

[iman24]

@ Cometolearn: Checking
@ MovieHost: Wordpress

the ram is stale at 780MB of 1GB

 

[prateek]

it's mostly because of .htaccess error
check the contents of your .htaccess file

in the root directory of your site
inside public_html folder


anyways
how this error came up ??
you did any thing ?? any configuration ?

 

[iman24]

no i didn't do anything
also i can't find htaccess

 

[prateek]

create a new .htaccess file inside the public_html folder with the following content

DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on

tell me what happens then


also check that your cgi-bin directory should be chmodded as 0755, not 0777.

Take the help of the error logs files in the following any1 directory depending
on your configuration also control panel


/var/log/message
/var/log/httpd/error_logs (/var/log/lighttpd/error_log or /var/log/httpd/error_log)

access them via SSH (like putty)
do you find any ? error lines details ? inside those files ?

 

[iman24]

First tip works perfect i added this line
DirectoryIndex index.php

because this line was there
RewriteEngine on

Find your php.ini file, this will mostly at these location /etc/php.ini

find in it

Display_error

where Off make On. Save and reboot your Apache or VPS. wait until it back. then visit your site and you will see the original error. post here so that make sense to us to help you in proper way.

If you cannot fix it via .htaccess, then rebuild your apace and it will most likely fix the problem.
