Hello.
If I enter wrong password, when I try to log in from front end with my test user, I don't get any error about wrong password, I just get redirected to joomla error page.
In this error page there is no explanation, just "500 - "
You can replicate it here, just enter any username / password - http://bit.ly/XTmlfy (http://bit.ly/XTmlfy)
If password is correct this error doesn't happen.
I tried disabling sef.
I'm using Joomla 2.5.8 | Virtuemart 2.0.18 | PHP 5.2.17
Could you please suggest me how to fix this, I looked through forum form "500 internal error" but didn't find similar issue.
You may have no error reporting in your template - see http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=111332.msg373959#msg373959
And check the server error logs as 500s are recorded there. You should really be using PHP 5.3+ with J2.5 - http://www.joomla.org/technical-requirements.html
Thank you for your reply!
Actually I have error reporting in my template, fortunately it is working great in any other part of the page, for example, when I'm trying to checkout empty cart I get error like I should.
You are right error log told me everything I need to know. It's fixed now. Somehow I always fail to remember to check error logs first.
Will definately start there next time I experience a problem.
I had the same problem...
Do not know what was the solution in your case (pity you did not write the solution of your problem) - but in my case - it was a problem with LOG directory write permissions...
