An AJAX HTTP error occurred.
HTTP Result Code: 500
Debugging information follows.

Why? ...and... What do I do?

Am also experiencing the same symptom. We recently upgraded to core 7.10. We are not able to edit format for any custom field using field> manage display. Here is output from some debugging that I put into field_ui.admin.inc: (see attachment)

Resolved. Our issue turned out to be a path problem. We are migrating content in from another content management system. The folder structure coming in from our other cms contained a "system" level. This compromised the path for ajax, causing inability to update formats from fields > manage display.

Resolved:

In Drupal 7, if you want to hide some field from display then click on "Label" in front of field click on "Hidden" and wait, because it takes some time to load the option, then apply format to "Hidden",

If you does not wait then ajax error will occur.
