Problem

API Portal throws http 500

Resolution

1st way to address this issue is to enable "development" / (debug) display in Joomla by: go to admin panel, System -> Global Configuration -> Server and set Error Reporting to ‘development’.

Then access the Blog (or the page having the issue) page and send Support the results.

In this case, the message was:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 81 bytes) in /opt/axway/apiportal/htdoc/administrator/components/com_easyblog/tables/table.php on line 98

The issue is with the memory PHP has to work with. It should be increased.

In php.ini (it’s in different location depending on the PHP installation) file find memory_limit and set it to 512M.

Then restart the Apache web server.
