Http Error 500 - When Candidate Submitting Application

Hello everyone,

I installed Open Cats and all has been working very well... until I started going a bit deeper with submitting applications as a candidate. When I get to the last step and click "submit application", I receive an Http Error 500. Any clue what the problem could be... or how to fix it?

Looking at my apache logs, the pb was a wrong configuration of phpmail. Everything works fine now.

Hi guys
I am experiencing a similar error - 504 Gateway time-out The server didn't respond on time.
When I press the button, the page does nothing, except a little rolling favicon that indicates that something the page is doing (or trying to), and if I do not refresh the page this error will show. But the fact that all data inserted into the form is successfully added into the DB, so I do not know what to do to solve this issue.
Any thoughts?

Any suggestions how to config the PHPMailer file, or other php files maybe?
Here's the error_log:

I have fixed it! :D
Problem was Port (465) and TLS, but when I changed it to (587) all worked fine.
For those who are facing this issue, just edit the config.php file and change this settings where you have your login data.
Cheers!
