server error screen http 500

Post by w24178 » Sun Jan 06, 2013 1:43 pm

Several months ago when I was having trouble uploading extensions to my joomla site I was advised by my website host to add a script which resulted in this page being diplayed when I had a failure.

Code: Select all

I was also advised not to leave it in my site. I did not follow that advise and have now forgotten what it was I added. I would like to get rid of this screen as it displays to much information.
Does anyone know what I may have added so that I can get rid of it. Thanks

I have recalled that I either added to a php file or created a new one. Pretty sure it had to be in my root directory.
I discovered that the 500 error is caused by a max exec. time of 60 seconds imposed by host of my cheap shared hosting plan.. This may be the result of heavy web traffic and/or my poor internet connection.
All I want to accomplish is just get a "page not found" screen when this happens. Thanks for looking.
