500 error with https

Are there any specific errors in your PHP error log?

Brecht

No.There are no errors being generated.

With wp debug, I get this:

Method AAMRG_Options::add_menu_page() should not be called statically in /home/mydomain/public_html/wp-content/plugins/autoAlbums/index.php on line 584

Further investigation reveals that the 500 error occurs not on plugin activation but only after the short code has been published to a page. That is, it seems that short code – or what happens when short code is called – is causing the 500 error, not simply plugin activation.

It looks lie that error, Method AAMRG_Options, refers to another plugin, not Easy Image Collage.

The error seems to be referring to the “auto albums” plugin, yes. Does it work if you deactivate that one for a second?

Brecht

I tested and disable the “auto albums” plugin and reactivated Easy Image Collage. It does not have effect. That is, Easy Image Collage causes 500 error whether auto albums is off or on. What is puzzling is that I only get this when domain is set to HTTPS. And there are absolutely no logs, not even server logs recording 500 error.

Easy Image Collage with HTTP seems to work fine.

I have found another solution for my image display but I hope you can work this out. Easy Image Collage is a nice plugin that, I am sure, many would find useful.

There is definitely no general issue with HTTPS. I personally use it on my website, which is HTTPS as well.

Did you do a find and replace in the database when switching to HTTPS?

Brecht

Yes. First thing I did. I don’t know; maybe it is just an anomaly on my server/hosting. Very confusing.

Hard to say. Just to be sure it’s not a compatibility problem you could try with all other plugins disabled and a default theme (like Twenty Seventeen). Other than that I’m not sure what the problem could be.

Ok. Thanks for your help.
