  1. POAJAX Call to PHP script gives me 500 Internal Server Error?
    text
    copied!<p>I make an AJAX request like so using JQuery:</p> <pre><code>$.ajax({ type: "GET", url: "getvideo.php", data: 'videoid=' + vid, </code></pre> <p>I use firebug to tell me what's going on and it tells me that a 500 internal server error has occurred? Here is part of the script concerned:</p> <pre><code>$videoid = $_GET['videoid']; $get = new youtubeAPI(); $get-&gt;getVideoAPI($videoid); class youtubeAPI extends Exception { function getVideoAPI($videoid){ if (isset($videoid)) { $clientLibraryPath = 'library'; $oldPath = set_include_path( get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . $clientLibraryPath ); require_once 'Zend/Loader.php'; // the Zend dir must be in your include_path </code></pre> <p>I use the same AJAX call to other scripts and they are fine. I have used these scripts on another server and it was fine <strong>except</strong> on the other server the file is named "getvideo.php5" whereas here I named it "getvideo.php" since I have PHP 5.2.6 installed only. </p> <p>Please help</p> <h2>UPDATE</h2> <p>This is the error:</p> <blockquote> <p>[Wed Feb 11 20:48:17 2009] [error] [client xx.xx.xxx.xxx] PHP Fatal error: Class 'DOMDocument' not found in /var/www/html/library/Zend/Gdata/App.php on line 734, referer: <a href="http://xx.xx.xx.xxx/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://xx.xx.xx.xxx/</a></p> </blockquote> <p>I hid my IP. At that line:</p> <pre><code>public static function importString($string, $className='Zend_Gdata_App_Feed') { // Load the feed as an XML DOMDocument object @ini_set('track_errors', 1); $doc = new DOMDocument(); // LINE 734 $success = @$doc-&gt;loadXML($string); @ini_restore('track_errors'); </code></pre> <p>But I shouldn't be playing around with that right? In any case, that class doesn't exist as a script and doesn't exist in that script as a class. I AM MAKING USE OF THIS SAME LIBRARY IN MY OTHER SERVER. It is also missing that too??? This is what I downloaded from the Youtube API zip folder.</p> <h2>SOLVED</h2> <p>This was a brand new server and it had minimal PHP installed. I was missing PHP dom functions. A quick install fixed this problem. Thanks for reminding me to look at the logs. I should have tried that first.</p> <pre><code>yum install php-xml yum install php-xmlrpc </code></pre>
