# error 500

 * Hi,
    We uploaded a very large graphics file for testing as a slider (we had problems
   with image sharpness) and activated it in the bootstrap slider. After that the
   website reacted with an http error 500. When activating twentyseventeen and evolve
   plus the website works without problems, after activating evolve (version: 3.9.7)
   the http error 500 occurs again. Afterwards we uploaded the theme completely 
   via FTP (binary), without success. Also the hoster cannot solve the problem. 
   What options do I have to make the website run again with evolve (I have saved
   the evolve settings)?
 * Best regards,
    Hans-Gerd

 * Hi [@nickpapag](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nickpapag/),
    I have restored
   the previous version 3.9.4. Thank you very much for the tip. Now it runs again.
   [@romik84](https://wordpress.org/support/users/romik84/): I just called the hoster
   who couldn’t find any error in the error.log.
 * Best Regards,
    Hans-Gerd

 * [@nickpapag](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nickpapag/) can you enable the
   debug to find out the issue? eg. [https://www.000webhost.com/blog/fix-wordpress-500-internal-server-error/](https://www.000webhost.com/blog/fix-wordpress-500-internal-server-error/)
   it will display some errors so I have more clue what makes the issue. thanks

    As i said i renamed
   via ftp 3.9.7 to evolve1 and uploaded 3.9.4. as evolve. With 3.9.4. evolve runs
   perfect. I switched via wordpress backend in evolve1(3.9.7.) and although the
   customization lost, i have access without problem in the backend when i am login.
   But… when open in another browser (logout) i get 500 error.

 * Our (non-profit hobby org) WordPress instance is crashing this morning. I don’t
   know if it’s the same symptoms as an error 500, but I’ll post the stack dump 
   here. If it’s different or unrelated to the error 500, I’ll start a new support
   thread.
 * The crash stack trace is:
 * Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class ‘Kirki’ not found in /home3/ab55505/public_html/

   need to FTP upload an older version of Evolve, I assume).
