Hello  
i got a 500 Internal Server Error. I checked the log file, the error  
appears to be an issue from the connection.  
#\<Errorno::ECONNABORTED: an established connection was aborted by the  
software in your host machine rails.  
how can i solve this?  
Thank you  
Fred

that means that the server either timed out when responding to your  
request  
or somehow it crashed.

if you are familiar with ssh you can login and restart it by issuing the  
command ‘mtrails restart js’ If that doesn’t work I will get to it  
tonight  
and look at the log to see what happend.

Do you know what could have happened?
