HTTP 500 Error uploading jpg only one 1 site

  • I have a web server that I am running multiple sites that have wordpress.
    Everything was working fine then I added a new site and installed wordpress.
    When I try and add new media and it is a jpg I get an http error but if I ad a png I do not.
    I searched and found a lot of old threads that even referenced wp settings that don’t exist in the new versions, but tried other things including recompiling apache and php and still continue to get the error.
    I look in the raw apache logs and don’t see anything giving me any clues of why this is happening. I also deleted my entire public_html contents and re-uploaded a fresh install of wordpress as well as creating a brand new database for it.

    Any things I should check as to why this seems to happen? Especially when it still works fine for another wordpress site on the same server?

  • Hey there,

    Internal server errors (error 500) are often caused by plugin or theme function conflicts, so if you have access to your admin panel, try deactivating all plugins.

    If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the default theme for your version of WordPress to rule-out a theme-specific issue.

    If that does not resolve the issue, it’s possible that a .htaccess rule could be the source of the problem. To check for this, access your server via SFTP or FTP, or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel, and rename the .htaccess file. If you can’t find a .htaccess file, make sure that you have set your SFTP or FTP client to view invisible files.
