Write your message below:

Here's what's going on... I get a generic 500 error accessing the Hesk help desk. I have to refresh to continue on with the program. I KNOW the problem is not with Hesk. My website was created with Weebly. So the server side error logs point to line #65 in Weebly's OriginAPI.php.

This error has been going on since August 2023. Contacting Weebly was no help. The Hesk help desk has been running at my school for over 10+ years. And works great. But I can't have users keep refreshing their browsers just to proceed and submit a ticket. This is very frustrating. I know the solution is simple. If I have to purchase a license then fine. I need a sure-fire solution ASAP.

I have included the server-side error log and the OriginAPI.php line error.

Thanks my friends.

This looks completely Weebly-related; no files you mention are part of Hesk. Some internal Weebly code is causing the issues.

The same thing happened when I tried to open the simple stand-alone PHPinfo file on your server using a new browser.

The only way to solve this is to have someone look at your server setup, someone who understands Weebly file structure and operations.

Klemen:

Thanks for the response. That's what I figured. Hesk runs completely 100%. A++.

I'm going to spin-up the help desk on a new domain and host and go from there. I appreciate the support.

I'll keep this issue open for a few days and let you know how things develop.

Thanks my friend.
