SergeFolks, I am trying to figure out what is a constant 500 error on our news website.
We are hosted on Dreamhost, Re-seller's plan.
After contacting Live help at DH I have learned, "we are hitting the memory limit." And we are to "suppose to buy VPN".
All my efforts to learn "numbers" so I can talk the bookkeeper into it, did not give any results. "We do not give limits for security reasons", or " you have to trust me, you are hitting the memory limits" where the suggestions.
I went ot New plugins search and found several plugins what monitor Memory. I have learned I was using Memory usage : 56.96 MByte
Sure enough, I went to to internet, searching 500 error + dreamhost"
I got a suggestion from someone to call DH (impossible - they do not give numbers!) and ask if THEY HAVE PHP MEMORY LIMIT and what is it.
It was something new to me and I went Live chat support on DH.
I have leaned, they have 64 MB of PHP memory allocated "not per instance" (read domain), but "per re-seller's account".
Means, you have Unlimited domains, Unlimited traffic, Unlimited space and it all indeed will work, ----> if your websites are NOT PHP driven.
If you have just TWO WP websites with memory-greedy plugins and each wants 32 MB of PHP memory - you have a welcoming 500 server error.
Any observations?
