These internal server errors may crop up for any number of reasons. It's usually that your web server (Apache, IIS, whatever) is badly configured (broken PHP install, bad RewriteRules...).

Have a look in the server error logs; they should give you the specifics of the error. If you're not sure where these are, ask your web host (or read the documentation for whatever software you're using if running a local server).

HTH,
Rob

thanks rob,

but one of my friend gave me a set of answers for that which is given below:

Following are some of the Possible reason for internal server error.

1) While using mail() function the to email address should not be empty.In our local server it wont display the error message.But some of the client server will mention the error.

2) Check the "Server API" type thru phpinfo().Because if it is CGI then all the scripts should be with 755 mode to execute.

3) Check the function name used in the scripts.Some times we may user the function name as "SendMail".But it may be a built in function in the CGI scripts.It may be a cause to the internal server error.

but my question is how those things(which is mentioned in the list) are related with the internal server error
pls clear this,

thanks
