Internal Server error after MYSQL upgrade

Hi all,

JUst updated our server to mysql 5.1 and now all sites have the following - Help!

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@myemail.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Hi all,

Ok I fixed this.. I had to rebuild Apache and remove mod_security - is this going to cause me an issue?

Also once having done this all of our Joomla sites had corrupt tables in jos_components, jos_core_acl_aro and jos_sessions

we have had to restore all joomla databases to previous backups in order to get around this.. I believe this is an issue that I also found here http://forums.cpanel.net/f354/help-f...es-144293.html

Hello,

After mysql upgradation you need to do an easy apache ( php will get recompiled with mysql ) to avoid internal server error. Mod_security is a web based firewall and it is important in securing your server.

Hello,

After mysql upgradation you need to do an easy apache ( php will get recompiled with mysql ) to avoid internal server error. Mod_security is a web based firewall and it is important in securing your server.

Ordinarily, PHP being compiled against the wrong version of MySQL will cause an error from PHP telling you that it cannot connect to MySQL, not an internal server error. Internal server errors are usually caused by permissions or ownerships problems with suPHP, or problems with log files, or problems with modules like mod_security like the original poster has encountered.

For more information about mod_security, refer to its home page at the following URL:

ModSecurity: Open Source Web Application Firewall

Hello,

After mysql up gradation if you won't compile php with mysql it will surely return Internal server errors. That's my experience!
