500 Error Definition

The 500 Internal Server Error is a generic HTTP status code indicating an issue on the website's server without specific details on the problem.

Possible Causes and Solutions

1. Avoid HTML or Scripting Characters

Ensure you haven't used characters like < > in form fields, as HirePOS servers restrict such data for security reasons.

2. Data Volume and File Size

Check if you are submitting large data or files exceeding 4Mb, as HirePOS limits data transfer for security. Keep file sizes within the specified limit.

If other pages work fine, it might be an unhandled error. Report the steps leading to the error to hirepos@hirepos.com.au for a detailed error update in the app.
