I have a website that has been working perfectly for several months. It is a joomla 2.5 site with a full, commercial SSL certificate from GoDaddy
Debian 7 64 bit server
Virtualmin
Hosted on Linode
No change to server, no new installs, nothing other than users browsing, and for some reason switching on errors does not reveal the problem / error.. just keeps showing the 500 page, and I cant find any error logs
Tried a fresh HTACCESS
The ONLY thing that has changed, the client has bought a new domain and just done a redirect / forward
If I browse the site without SSL, its perfect.
Can anyone give me a starting point for this perplexing 'out of nowhere' error
Thanks
It could be a SSL name mismatch error seeing that you are coming from a domain not listed in the certificate. Seeing as it is one of the requirements to set up a secure connection.

I am working with my new website. I got SSL certificates file from Digicert SSL provider . I installed SSL as instructed . But my WordPress pages still get Insecure page error while other html and non-WordPress PHP pages works Okay. I am not sure what did i do wrong.
my website is
https://www.devbhusal.com/ shows insecure page error.
https://www.devbhusal.com/readme.html works fine.
https://www.devbhusal.com/test.php works fine.
If SSL installed successfully with domain and still site is not secure then please check if internal link used only http:// if yes then convert to https:// and still you not able to find then you can use https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-ssl/ plugin.
I tried with simpl SSL and everything that I can find on internet. At last I made wordpress backup file, created new server in EC2 ,install fresh WordPress ,restore wordpress data and install SSL. Now it is working. I still couldn't figure out what went wrong with old settings.
I have domain from namecheap.com and they hosted on my dedicated server with bluehost.com. suddenly since last 2 weeks im facing an issue. on all my domain that i have from namecheap.com hosted on bluehost after browing for few mins gets ERR_CONNECTION_TIME_OUT error and then immediately page reloads automatically. Even on the Cpanel login page of these domains we get the same issue. Though we have some domains registered with bluehost it self and hosted on the same blue host server we dont get this error on those domain. We have contact bluehost they said all is fine from their end, we contacted namecheap.com they said all is good from their end. Now i am stuck what to check and where to check, we have reinstalled the website scripts disabled all the plugins but we still getting this error, it is not all the time when we try to browse website after two three pages we get this error and then its gone then after 2 3 pages it comes again and then gone.
Any sort of suggestions or help will be appreciated.
Typically, an error ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT occurs when you have intermittent Internet connectivity. I believe you won't face the same problem in other ISP. To fix that, you can try flushing the DNS of your local computer by issuing command ipconfig /flushdnsfrom command prompt. In addition, edit local computer hosts file located at Computer C:\ Windows\ System32\ Drivers\ etc\Hosts, and look for entry like 0.0.0.0 example.com. Remove that entry, save the file and restart your computer.
I'm working IT at a small company. We host our own exchange servers, and web server. Yesterday, at around 2pm, external emails stopped getting through to us, and our website began serving a 500 error to everyone.
I didn't do much to the firewall (sonicwall 240) or the servers yesterday to cause this. We run WordPress and do not have automatic updates turned on. Also PHP did not update itself.
I'm not sure where to look first. Any ideas on how to track down what's throwing the 500 error? It's not a single page or script that's doing it. Even if I create my own .php file, it'll have a 500 error.
Fixed: Our web server lost it's internal IP address. I changed it back to 192.168.0.3 as it was before, and all is well.
Using CPanel/Softaculous to install Mediawiki on my hosted website appears to install fine. Though not sure how much the installer checks.
I then setup a sub-domain such as wiki.mydomain.com to accept requests there.
After that, I also setup SSL cert in Cpanel. The cert is self-signed because at the moment I am just testing out the wiki and everything before I decided if I will purchase a cert.
Then, if I attempt to go to http://wiki.mydomain.com. I get the landing page of MediaWiki but if I attempt to go to https://wiki.mydomain.com I get nothing but a blank browser window.
Now, if i go to https://wiki.mydomain.com/index.php, I get a 404 error (I created a simple html page with a 404 error message then modified my .htaccess to show it on the 404).
When looking at the logs, it appears to be trying to find the index.php file under /home/mydomain/public_html/index.php instead of /home/mydomain/wiki/index.php.
Very confused on why this isn't working at all. I can post some configs and things as well but this account is a newly created CPanel account so not much as been done on it other then installing the wiki software.
(Edit) This is using SharedSSL. I couldn't get it to work without it. Some reason even after I made sure the site was the only one on the IP Address using WHM it was still showing it as a shared IP. :P
Fixed the SharedSSL by using this information: Cpanel Forums
You will have to make a new install of MediaWiki via Softaculous. Go on the install form you will get an option to "Choose Protocol" choose https:// there and in the "Choose Domain" dropdown choose your subdomain https://wiki.mydomain.com leave the "In Directory" field blank and then click on Install button.
Then you should be able to access the MediaWiki install at https://wiki.mydomain.com
I think the reason for this issue is due to how cPanel works with sub-domains and SSL. From what I gather, this appears to be a SSL cert issue since when CPanel rebuilds the httpd.conf using /scripts/rebuildhttpdconf command, it does not create a SSL virtual host for the sub-domain. Also, the parent domain works fine.
I ended up putting the wiki in /home/mydomain/public_html/wiki then setting up redirects for http://mydomain.com and https://domain.com to point to https://mydomain.com/wiki.
For now, that's all I could figure out to fix the issue was to drop the sub-domain.
