[opencms-dev] error 500 on site root request, help!

[Joe Desbonnet]

If you are getting a 500 there is problably an error in WEB-INF/logs/opencms.log

Take a look there and see if you can find an exception + stacktrace
and post that if it does not make sense to you.

Yes, it is most unsatisfactory that OpenCms emits status code 200 for
errors.  I understand this bug (Bug #1138 in Bugzilla) is fixed in the
6.2.x releases.

I've been able to hack my 6.0.4 installation to fix that bug. I can
post the details if you want.

Joe.
