Internal Server Error - Apache on Ubuntu

Can I get some tips for troubleshooting "internal server error"?

This is NOT a new set up. Its been running a couple of years with zero problems. It was a little slow today so I rebooted it.

When it came back up all I get is "internal server error" when I browse to the site.

Ubuntu and apache

I checked apache error log. Dont see much there.
There is a node server that runs on startup. That shows to be running.
Checked apache config it tests ok.

Any tips on a systematic way to troubleshoot internal server error?

Thanks

Are you running something with PHP? If so, I'd assume logging is turned off and that's why you're not seeing error logs.

Try the access log too. Errors can get logged there as well if they involve access.
