 * Dear WooCommerce Community,
 * I wanted to update our WooCommerce WP plugin but the system shows me an error
   message:
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN”> 500 Internal Server
   Error Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration
   and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator
   at [service@webmailer.de](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-when-updating-13/service@webmailer.de?output_format=md)
   to inform them of the time this error occurred, and the actions you performed
   just before this error. More information about this error may be available in
   the server error log.
 * Could you please help me?
    Thank you.

 * Seem you are getting a Server Time out. Can be from multiple issues:
    PHP-Timeout
   an issue in your .htacces ann issue in a running script PHP Memory-Limit. Maybe
   this is to low in your server configuration. Can you share the logs of woocommerce?

 * Hi there,
 * As alluded to by [@braehler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/braehler/), 
   the cause of that can be pretty broad. To narrow things down, please share a 
   copy of your (latest) fatal error log as found under **WooCommerce > System Status
   > Logs**
 * Thanks!

 * Hey again!
 * The plugin “js_composer/” is missing a file or something similar.
 * I would recommend manually reinstalling that plugin, or contacting the support
   for that plugin if you are still having issues.
 * Hopefully that helps! Have a great one!
