"500 internal server error"

[hitch]

Is anyone else getting this? I'm trying ot log into one of my account and I get this message:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@paypal.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

uh oh, hope i didn't mess something up switching IP's to quickly? Is this system maintenance time?

I just logged in 3 different times. No problems. Check all your internet security settings. Maybe you have something tweaked too much.

it works now, I don't know what was up.

You probably left one of your proxies on.

usually just clicking refresh solves the problem

I don't really know what happened, I didnt mess with the proxies. All I did was change the Mac address, and clear the cookies like 10 times (I have OCD lol)

Same exact thing happened to me about 18 hrs ago ..

I tried again in 15 minutes and it worked fine !

I suspect they are in the process of implementing something new. Time to start paying close attention, maybe we can predict what it might be and how it works.

thats just a generic error code. nothing to do with what you did, something screwed up on paypals server.

It is possible that the error was caused by a brief interruption while PP installed something new (on-the-fly).
