Random 'Error 500 - internal server error'

Post by Michael.Hare »

I'm experiencing the 'Error 500' on certain articles within our site. I've started to notice a pattern that it occurs when the PDF generates 3 pages or more.

Running Joomla 1.5.15, Phoca PDF component 1.0.2, Phoca PDF system plugin 1.0.4, PHP 5.2.12.

I have increased the PHP max_execution_time (600) and memory_limit (128M) thinking the script is timing out, but that hasn't had an impact.

Has anyone experienced anything like this before? Or other suggestions on things I might try? Thank you for the help!

Additional information:

I am producing a header which includes a PNG image. Through some testing, I found that if I disabled the header, I was then able to generate the 3 page document.

Are there any limitations anyone is aware of with the use of images?

No idea, maybe the script cannot render all the 3 images (but if there is time and memory for it ? :idea: )
Do you have enabled error reporting? Did you look at the error log?
