If your website returns a **500 error**, you need to see the details of the PHP error causing it. To generate a debug log, edit your `.htaccess` file and add this content:

```apache
php_flag display_errors On
php_flag display_startup_errors On
php_value error_reporting -1
php_value error_log /home/YOUR-USER/php_error.log
```

:::warning
Do not forget to replace `YOUR-USER` with your hosting account username.
:::

Then visit the page that is throwing the error (or wait for the error to happen again). You will find the detailed error information in the specified file (`php_error.log`).

:::tip
Once you finish debugging, remove these lines from `.htaccess`: displaying errors in production exposes sensitive information about your website.
