Solution for WP E-commerce 500 Internal server error
I encountered a error “Error 500 – Internal server error « WP e-commerce ” when using WP3.1.3 and WP E-commerce 3.8.4
I read numerous posts regarding this issue, obviously with no concrete answer and solution. Most of the answers rely on specific settings from 1&1 hoster.
My problem was solved through a small setting tooked in the “Store settings” in the WP Admin Panel.
Set “SORT PRODUCT BY” on any other from the 3 available, not DRAG AND DROP. This solved my issue.
Screenshots follow.
After installing WP E-comemrce (the procedure is simple, no need to explain, you landed on this page because you have it allready installed, and have the error:( ), you setup your store.
then you go to the “Presentation” Tab.
And, of course you choose DRAG-nDROP……
This is the result you obtain “500 Internal server error”:
Now, to solve the problem, go back to “Store”, and choose for “Presentation” tab, for example “Name”, avoid Drag-n-DROP, allthrough it sounds cute 
, and UPDATE
Now , if you go back in your Admin Panel in WordPress, you can acces without the obvious error, your submenue for products:
QED:
Maybe some bloke, could find this usefull.
