php return 500 error but no error log

Question

I am having an issue when I have a php application that is returning an internal server error (500) however nothing is showing up in the error log.

Now I know there

Answer 1

What happened for me when this was an issue, was that the site had used too much memory, so I'm guessing that it couldn't write to an error log or displayed the error. For clarity, it was a Wordpress site that did this. Upping the memory limit on the server showed the site again.
