# Internal Server Error from Jetpack

 *  Resolved [Davidian](https://wordpress.org/support/users/the-odd-duck/)

 * [4 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/internal-server-error-from-jetpack/)
 * I’ve used jetpack for years, on a number of sites, but today I woke up to an 
   internal server error (500)
 * I did the standard troubleshooting mode, also put cloudflare into developer mode
   and tried each plugin individually.
 * The only one that caused this error was jetpack.
 * I downloaded a new copy of jetpack and overwrote the existing, and upon activation,
   again we had the internal server error.
 * This is obviously a shame as the publicise and gallery features are great, though
   I suppose I could source them elsewhere and I don’t use much else out of jetpack
   on my main site.
 * Any help would be great.

 * Did you try with only Jetpack enabled and all other plugins disabled? Did you
   receive the error then?
 * If so, please try temporarily switching to a default theme such as Twenty Twenty
   One to rule out a theme conflict.
 * If you are still having issues, I would recommend reaching out to your hosting
   provider. A `500` error like the one you’re experiencing is typically the result
   of a PHP fatal error. They can look at your server logs and tell you exactly 
   what error is happening, which will help you to determine the cause of the issue.
 * Let us know how it goes and we can take another look as needed.

 * I had already spoken to the service provider – they were not actually getting
   any messages in the logs about the internal server error and found it all very
   strange.
 * It’s also odd that jetpack has worked fine on this site for a few years and now
   suddenly doesn’t work – something in your recent update causing issues?
 * oddly every time I deactivate jetpack and reactivate it I have to set it up again.
   Before I set it up, site is fine, post setting it up I get the internal server
   error.
 * However, to do what you asked above, I just activated jetpack and went through
   set up again… refreshed, cleared caches and all sorts… and ironically there is
   now no internal server error.
 * I wonder if there was something up with the Jetpack/Wordpress connection earlier
   as the internal server error happened after I connected my wordpress acc to jetpack.
 * I will see if I get the error again over the next few days but fingers crossed
   all is good.

 * I am having the same problem. Also started a about 3-4 hours ago.
    I’bve disabled
   Jet Pack for now, so that my authors can get their content up. Will try refreshing
   caches and re-set up. So far, as soon as I enable jetpack, I can’t access dashboard.

 * We’ve seen a few reports of 500 errors on sites hosted with Siteground, but we
   have not been able to reproduce the issue so far.
 * In one case, Siteground were able to resolve the issue by downgrading from PHP
   7.4 to 7.3, so that might be worth a try.
 * [@jennipagano](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jennipagano/) is your site
   also hosted with Siteground?

 * Just to update, it still seems fine.
 * [@jennipagano](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jennipagano/) – I wonder if
   re-uploading jetpack over itself would help as well. Maybe the auto-update missed
   something?
 * I don’t think that was what the problem actually was, as it was as soon as I 
   connected my WordPress acc to jetpack that was the problem, before that stage
   the plugin could actually be on, but it could be a useful way for you to debug
   to see if you are getting the same problem.
 * [@drawmyface](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drawmyface/) – I’ve not needed
   to do the downgrade as it is still working since.. just odd that it took me a
   few hours of it not working and then it suddenly starting to work again, and 
   the internal server error not actually hitting the internal siteground logs

 * Hi [@the-odd-duck](https://wordpress.org/support/users/the-odd-duck/)
 * The behavior you related in your last message looks like a server glitch, maybe
   a memory overload causing a slowness at the site, even the FastCGI enabled could
   cause the error 500, and the logs don’t register them.
 * I recommend you to keep your site software fully upgraded and check with the 
   hosting support if you had any memory outrage in the last few days.
 * Let us know if you have any questions.
