Hello Umbraco community,
I’m experiencing an HTTP error 500 on my website after making updates in the CMS. I’m not sure which updates caused the issue, but it happened after I updated various elements including the home page, header, and the blog.
I find it strange that the error is not a 404 page, which would be typical for a missing page. Instead, something seems to have gone wrong in the CMS that severed my site from the server. I’ve been directed by my IT department to double check the home page as that’s where the issue originated.
When I checked the Umbraco logs I found the following error message:
--------- umbraco error log -------------------------------
