WebKit encountered an internal error

Hello BigDGoodwin,
I understand that you are having issue with browsing the web on your iPad. Let's see if we can get this sorted out.
The firs thing I would look at is to reset Safari on your iPad. Go to Settings > Safari and then tap Clear History and Website Data. Then it is a matter of opening Safari again and then try connecting to a website. Take a look at the article below for more details.

Take care

On my iPad it works, though, if you switch your Safari browser to incognito mode...

Of course this is only an interim solution...

Same problem on my iPad Air with iOS 11.2 beta: Clear, reset and reboot did not correct the problem.

Hi norm123,

Sorry to jump on someone else's post but this is doing my head in!

My Ipad displayed the same error message, then Safari crashed and both Settings and Safari wouldn't open. I have restored it via iTunes and my PC which has fixed the issue with Settings. Therefore, I have been able to follow your advices.. but even after clearing History and Website Data many times + rebooting the device by holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home button until the apple appears, the issue is still there: When I click on Safari, a white page opens and shuts down within half a second.

Any further thoughts on how to resolve this would be most appreciated!

Thanks!

Any solution on this yet? I started having this problem this morning and clearing browser and soft resetting has not helped.

This worked for me, even after resetting the network settings and an iOS hard reset. Should have checked/cleared Safari History first!!

Thank you

My issue began immediately after upgrading to iOS 11.2. Clear, reset and reboot did not correct problem.

Thanks. It works in Incognito mode but very annoying since my favorite sites are not loading properly.
