upgrade to PHP 5.3 broke site

Permalink April 28, 2013 at 6:22 PM

For the last week I've been working on a concrete 5 site - new install of latest version. Hosted on godaddy I was experiencing really slow response the entire time working on this project, and consistent hangs and Internal 500 errors.

Today was particularly bad with the 500 errors, so I read the forums and based on some dialogue, through the godaddy panel I upgraded from php 5.2 to php 5.3

about 10 min after that the site I've been working on went completely down...

The error I'm getting is

[Sun Apr 28 15:04:38 2013] [warn] [client 69.118.35.224] (104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server
[Sun Apr 28 15:04:38 2013] [error] [client 69.118.35.224] Premature end of script headers: index.php

I've been looking through the forums trying to work with .htaccess and get the site up with no avail...

thanks forum

ok, I tried everything I could to get the site back up and running under PHP 5.3, and had no luck.

I WAS able to switch back to PHP 5.2 under the godaddy panel, and the site came back online... of course... I'm still experiencing frequent 500 errors...
