Ok so just for grins I trashed the app handler install and did it right from the .zip download and an FTP session, I get in and everything looks great and boom Error 500 with i try to install a theme or upload media. Anyone care to tell me what happened from 3.x to 4.x to make this so annoying?
I haven’t had any issues like this, so I would assume that it’s something local to your site there.
What exactly is the error that you’re getting? a 500 is probably the most generic error that you can give, so look at the log files, and enable debugging to see what the actual error is and you’ll at least be able to see exactly why and where the error is happening.
Ok so…
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);
all do nothing… cleared cache, used a machine that has never been to the site, no verbose error, no log file, no nothing.
I find yes i can upload tiny tiny files like 53k (useless)
php.ini all limits set to 64MB
.htaccess does not exist in this build yet so no problem there.
Next idea?
ohh here is an error
HTTP request length 131584 (so far) exceeds MaxRequestLen (131072), referer:
Ok sooo found a fix MaxRequestLen 64000000
in fcgid.conf seems to do the trick.
That is what it was. As you’ve seen, having the server set to allow a maximum upload size of 128kb isn’t much use to anyone! I’m glad that you got it sorted.
