   Ive got some questions about a new wordpress site I've been setting up and that has been running for a while now. Everything works great but I have on little problem I can't seem to tackle. When I enable caching (which plugin I use to enable caching doesn't matter) the loading of the site doesn't really speed up. When I visit the site and debug it using Firebug I can see that an internal server error is generated with pingback from xmlrpc.php file.

   Can someone give me a pointer on how to fix this? What exactly is going wrong and how can I solve this. The site concerned is:
   this one

   Thanks a lot in advance!

   Kind regards

   500 ISE may indicate a problem with the configuration on the server. Usually your hosting company tech support can help. It could be a problem with your .htaccess file.

   I've contacted hosting support and they told me it was a problem inside wordpress itself. I kind of think so myself too because when I disable caching the 500 ISE disappears too. Any other suggestions?

   have you tried:

   -deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to narrow down and possibly fix the problem. If the problem goes away, activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the culprit.

   If you don't have access to your admin area, try deactivating them manually via FTP or phpMyAdmin.

   -switching to the default theme ("twentyten") for a moment by renaming your current theme's folder in wp-content/themes. The idea is to force WordPress to fall back to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific issue.

   If you don't have access to your admin area, then access your server via FTP or SFTP or whatever file management application your host provides.

   - resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems (because the hooks remain unless plugins completely removed).
