I tried to update my magento 1.9.3 version to magento 1.9.4.1 by replacing the files by magento 1.9.4.1. After that i am getting an 500 internal server error.

How can I resolve this? I am using cPanel to replace the files.

Most probably this is due to file permissions. From the root of your Magento install run:

find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;  
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;     
find ./var -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;     
find ./media -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;

If this works, you should try to lower the permissions a little, this are too permissive but will allow you to check if you are on the right path. If it's working please check this excellent answer for detailed explanation.

  • how can i run these commands from cpanel? – remiz_muhammed Apr 10 '19 at 02:47
  • I am not aware of a simple way of setting permissions recursively through a cPanel. The easiest way is to run those commands in an SSH console. If that is not possible you can achieve the same result by using an FTP client.
    For example Filezila. In the remote server panel (usually, the right one) right click the Magento root folder and select File Permisions enter 644 in the Numeric values, check Recurse into subdirectories and select apply to files only, click OK
    Again on Magento root set 755 but select apply to directories only     – Dimitar Ivanov Apr 10 '19 at 06:09
  • For var and media select them, enter 777 and apply it to directories and files. If you need some visual reference check - https://www.pickaweb.co.uk/kb/change-file-folder-permissions-using-filezilla/ Or if you prefer some other FTP client check how you can set permissions recursively. – Dimitar Ivanov Apr 10 '19 at 06:15
