"An Internal Server Error Has Occurred."

When I try to login to this Support Forum, I get this message: "An Internal Server Error Has Occurred." It only happens when I use Safari. No problem with Firefox. Weird. How can I fix it?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.4), Safari 5.0

I have the same issue, but seem to have found a workaround, not necessarily a fix.

If I try to login using the Login link on the right panel, I get the error.

But when I click any Reply link on any post and login in the following login screen, it works.

(I also get the "An Internal Server Error Has Occurred" error when I click Logout!)

Same problem, but none of the login options work in Safari. They all lead to Internal Server Error.

Works in FireFox (what I'm currently on).

I have not experienced this before, and have not logged on to the forums for around 2 months.

This is ridiculous, that I have to use a 3rd party browser to access support forums. I don't want to use FireFox.

HI,

Try this. From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Security tab. Click "Show Cookies"

Delete all Apple related cookies.

Relaunch Safari.

If that didn't help, quit Safari from the Safari Menu Bar. Then go to ~/Library/Cookies and move the Cookies.plist file to the Trash.

*Note. The ~ (Tilde) character represents your Home Folder.*

Relaunch Safari.

Thank you Carolyn Samit! Deleting Apple cookies worked for me to.

Can webmasters of this discussion forum check why this happens and make something to handle this kind of error? "An internal Server error" sign in browser has nothing to do with real problem. If I didn't have 2 mac computers I could never solve this problem, because I don't use any other browser than Safari. And the message about internal server error would just make me believe that http://discussions.apple.com/ login doesn't work at the moment, due to it's server internal error. Right? 🙂
