Sending a PM not working

Post by 4mpb5 »

I am using 3.3.9
When a user tries to send a PM , the following error screen pops up & says

This page isn’t working
xyz.com is currently unable to handle this request.
HTTP ERROR 500


I verified in board settings that PMing is allowed.
I also checked permissions for various groups & they are enabled to PM

Even as an admin, I cannot send a PM to others or to nyself or to another admin
I get the same above error page

That is a server configuration error.
you need to check server error log for what it is.

What extensions do you have enabled? Do any of them deal with PMs?

Go to the Error Log on your server
The error log can help to identify what the problem is. It keeps track of errors and records them.
