The WP Job Manager plugin goes awry after a user tries to log into the website with his/her email username and password. See this screenshot: https://s26.postimg.org/kteo3b789/500_internal_server_error.png
My webhost has told me that it is because the plugin is ‘using a very large cookies’ and that generating shorter cookies would resolve the issue.
After a user fills in the page https://beanjobs.com/register-your-skills/, confirms his/her email address and then tries to log into his account using their email address & password, they get an ‘500 – Internal Server Error’.

When the browsing data is cleared in it is visible again but I do not want user having to do that and see that page.
My webhost has told me to see you because your WP Job plugin doing a very large cookie request. This is what webhost technical support has said the following to me:
“The original request that results in error 500 is, it can be taken from a browser >> developer tools >> Network >> right click on the 500 error request >> Copy as curl:
Code:
curl ‘https://beanjobs.com/login/’ -H ‘pragma: no-cache’ -H ‘accept-encoding: gzip, deflate, sdch’ -H ‘accept-language: bg-BG,bg;q=0.8’ -H ‘upgrade-insecure-requests: 1’ -H ‘user-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.87 Safari/537.36’ -H ‘accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8’ -H ‘cache-control: no-cache’ -H ‘authority: beanjobs.com’ -H ‘cookie: wordpress_logged_in_e5daacf8d0b15a0298e71e5299b42894=paveldosev%7C1506775622%7CLj2MOLagUNpRcrWcgpeXmVo9dbv5sRHU22NKDUoZGDB%7Cfb9425fa3cb96586dc0345d24522f1f64cff6ded999ba3450fd0c53a665a73f1; _ga=GA1.2.1880442822.1505565964; _gid=GA1.2.529783117.1505565964; wfwaf-authcookie-fdc6735b21a24db3ee5e119ffaf73d95=70%7C%7C7bbbe84e61d02794b6dd759fdc5964cab4ce42fe37216efc3530af29866ec50d; wordpress_test_cookie=WP+Cookie+check’ -H ‘referer: https://beanjobs.com/login/?action=resetpass’ –compressed
If I get the same request but reducing the lenght of the cookie string the error is no longer showing:
Code:
curl ‘https://beanjobs.com/login/’ -H ‘pragma: no-cache’ -H ‘accept-encoding: gzip, deflate, sdch’ -H ‘accept-language: bg-BG,bg;q=0.8’ -H ‘upgrade-insecure-requests: 1’ -H ‘user-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.87 Safari/537.36’ -H ‘accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8’ -H ‘cache-control: no-cache’ -H ‘authority: beanjobs.com’ -H ‘cookie: wordpress_logged_in_e5daacf8d0b15a0298e71e5299b42894=paveldosev%7C150cb96586dc0345d245220fd0c53a665a73f1; _ga=GA1.2.1880442822.1505565964; _gid=GA1.2.529783117.1505565964; wfwaf-authcookie-fdc6735b21a24db3ee5e119ffaf73d95=70%7C%7C7bbbe84e61d0af29866ec50d; wordpress_test_cookie=WP+Cookie+check’ -H ‘referer: https://beanjobs.com/login/?action=resetpass’ –compressed
I suggest contacting its developer and asking him if it is possible to generate shorter cookies as this should resolve the issue
