fixing internal server error caused by SuPHP handler in apache

There are lots of times that you may be encountered this error on your websites on the server

“HTTP Error 500 – Internal server error”

Even after transfering your site to a new web hsoting or by changing the handler on suphp on your panel let say cpanel.

As the SUPHP is sensitive for permission other than 755 for directories and 644 for files and that will result in an internal serve error

Also all of the accounts files and folders must have an ownership equal to their acount username meaning a file with sam ownership in a directory of another user account lets say peter will also result in an internal server error

To resolvce account ownership or permission on every account modifiy the follwing code with desired username then run it into your ssh

Correcting Directory Ownership

find /home/username/public_html -type d -exec chown username:username '{}' \;

Correcting Files Ownership

find /home/username/public_html -type f -exec chown username:username '{}' \;

Correcting Directory Permision

find /home/username/public_html -type d -exec chmod 755 '{}' \;

Correcting Files Permision

find /home/username/public_html -type f -exec chmod 644 '{}' \;
