    I set up a set for a client on dreamhost with the dreampress hosting option. I am using a child theme of kleo and everything was working until out of the blue all the forum related pages are now returning a 500 internal server error.

    I have chated with tech support a few times for about 4 hours now and they keep trying to blame it on PHP. First they insisted it was memory but I am running on a local server with 1 4th the memory. Now they are saying it is because of the theme and I should contact you.

    Any ideas?

    ftp credentials aren’t working. The most common 500 error is a memory exhausted error. How much memory have you allocated to WP in your wp-config.php file?

    Also, whats the actual error? You’ll need to look at the server error logs to determine that.

    My apolgies it is sftp not ftp.

    The error is Premature end of script headers: admin-ajax.php, referer: http://www.christianfreedomalliance.com/wp-admin/plugins.php.

    The actual file it errors on varies.

    I made an info file at http://christianfreedomalliance.com/info.php The memory is 4x more than my local server which is running the site fine.

    Server memory and memory allocated to WP are different. So I ask again. How much memory did you allocate to WP in your wp-config.php file? If you haven’t specifically allocated memory in that file, WP will only use 64M.

    You should also look for plugin conflicts.

    Also I did try sftp and the credentials didn’t work

    The only place I could find that was throwing a 500 error were your forum pages. I ran the tools in Tools > Forums and the 500 error went away.

    That did it. Any idea why it got corrupted?

    Nope. But if bbpress provided the tools, perhaps it happens often.
