Basically I've been getting tons of 500 Errors on my site Caltweet and after going back and forth with my Host admin i've narrowed the culprit down to sloppy coding from a programmer I hired. Here is what the server admin said: "This has something to do with the coding on the site. For some reason, as you click around on the site, it is not closing out the scripts correctly. When I was doing a simply search for events in Houston, the following processes were all created: caltweet 17601 0.0 0.4 117264 10648 ?

It is obvious that the host has php error reporting disabled and that is why apache is interpreting all errors as server internal errors. You need more cooperation from your host admin as he is the one who can access some log files and forward you the exact php error message.
