I have searched a long long time and now I'm hoping somebody here can help me out. Since last week I have been getting the 500 error page when tryin to add a product to the cart. It doesn't matter from which location I try to enter the cart-page. It does however gets added to the cart, it's just that the cart-page won't show (www.mydomain.com/checkout/cart/) Everything else seems to work on both front- and backend. Does anybody have a solution to this? I’m having a somewhat similar problem. I have searched a long long time and now I’m hoping somebody here can help me out.

Just deleted everything in var/cache and var/sessions and it worked again. So far I really like Magento but that's pretty sucky - they gotta fix that. Also they need to ensure that products are auto-entered as 'stock available' with at least a qty of 1 so that they appear, and get a better process for having featured stocks on the front page. But apart from that it seems pretty great. Same problem. 500 error out of the blue when the site was loading slowly and I was trying to do some updates – both public and admin went offline.

I can say since I did that, the site is working great (almost one month ago). I am not sure what my hosting provider thinks about it (to use that size memory in a shared server) but until I get the first complain..... :-) Hi Phil.

Then I deleted everything in /var/cache and /var/sessions and it seems everything is running normal again. I'm pretty sure it's gonna fail again at some point but for now it's working.

It works much better after adding this bit to the end of my .htaccess file RLimitMem 128000000 128000000 I guess it forces the server to use that amount of memory. In the other hand I get this error in the server errors log: [Mon Oct 04 04:27:32 2010] [error] Must be uid 0 to raise maximum RLimitMEM Hope it helpes Indeed, I made some progress with this.

I've scoured the forums and internet looking for a fix. I, too, get the 500 error when trying to log in to the admin panel. Hitting refresh 3 or 4 times will correct it. Everything else that I've found with this problem has been referring to file permissions, but I've got all the correct permissions on files and folders. This one seems odd b/c of the refresh issue. I'm hosting with 1and1 Host on a Business Package. I've upped my memory_limit to 256M and confirmed using the phpinfo() function. If anyone has found a solution, I would really appreciate you sharing, and I will be sure to do the same. Thanks. Anyone find out any more regarding this issue?

If you look at the posts you will notice all of us have this problem, even in a fresh installation. Why I say this is a php5.ini and .htaccess problems is because looking at the servers logs I see that every time the 500 error comes up, something like "php script run out of memory...." appears in it. that is all I can say by now Hope it helps I think this is more related to the php5.ini file and the .htaccess file rather than a file being corrupted.

I will do as soon as I finish updating one of my sites. Although this is not the correct post, if someone is having trouble importing many configurable products, the solution (what worked for me) is create an advance import profile.

I've installed this software on two seperate domains with two seperate hosting accounts (both 1and1) and the problem persists. I am curious to see what Raul finds with changing the memory settings in what I believe to be the .htaccess file. I've done that in the past initially but had no success either.
