I try to like a post and I get `{"status":500,"error":"Internal Server Error"}`, which means I’m not notified by message-bus, but if I reload, the like appears there.

Hi @Alexandre_Gurgel and welcome to our community!

Are you still having this problem? If so, you can make it easier for us to help you by providing any errors you see in the log, which you can get to directly by appending `/logs` to your site URL.

You might also find more info in the javascript console in your web browser.

And finally, when problems like this occur it helps to look at the site using [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true), which you can get to directly by appending `/safe-mode` to your site URL. Maybe a theme component or plugin you are using is causing the problem. If so, you may need to remove it.

If it’s none of those things and we are able to replicate the problem on another site then you may have reported a bug! That is a huge help to everyone who uses Discourse because then it can be investigated and fixed in the software.
