    Hello @gowrikeethus

    Hope you are doing well!

    The 500 internal error usually showing up when the site’s resources are low. Please increase PHP Memory of your site by adding the following line to wp-config.php file:
    define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );

    Make sure that you insert this line above /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */ line.

    If the issue still persists, please run a quick test; deactivate all the plugins and try to activate only the CoursePress LMS plugin. If everything is well, activate one plugin at a time till the 500 error will show up again. Let us know what plugin caused it.

    Cheers,
    Nastia

    Its not helping. When i activate the plugin like as it change my htacess and my homepage shows error 500.
    When i deactive the plugin, the website starts to work again.

    Hello @ronananjos,

    If even memory limits are increased and site is still throwing 500 internal error, please perform plugin/theme conflict test.
    That is another reason for the 500 internal server error – CoursePress doesn’t change htaccess.

    If that still wont give us positive results please enable debug.log in your WordPress. To enable it, open your wp-config.php file and look for define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);. Change it to:
    define('WP_DEBUG', true);
    In order to enable the error logging to a file on the server you need to add yet one more similar line:

    define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );

    In this case the errors will be saved to a debug.log log file inside the /wp-content/directory.

    Depending on whether you want your errors to be only logged or also displayed on the screen you should also have this line there, immediately after the line mentioned above:

    define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );

    The wp-config.php is located in your WordPress root directory. It’s the same file where the database configuration settings are. You will have to access it by FTP or SFTP in order to edit it.

    I would need then to see content of the debug.log file – so please upload it to service like a Dropbox and paste link here.

    kind regards
    Kasia
