I've run a report on SEOMOZ and found many 500 errors for Kunena with what looks like a date stamp in the url.
Example:
Code:
http://www.yakangler.com/2012-02-06-14-27-13/20-water-cooler/13027-keep-live-bait-alive http://www.yakangler.com/2012-02-06-14-27-13/20-water-cooler/13713-making-the-transition http://www.yakangler.com/2012-02-06-14-27-13/20-water-cooler/158-malibu-stealth-14

There are a ton of these. Anyone have any ideas what is causing this? Thanks

I don't know. What is SEOMOZ?

Do you get any other information with the HTTP 500 Internal Server Error message?

Check your menu aliases. If for some reason Joomla or you did not generate a menu alias, sometimes Joomla will insert the date as the menu alias. That's the only time I've seen dates in the URL's.

This is all there was, and the server log only shows the last 300 errors
Code:
Title 500 : Error Meta Description Traceback (most recent call last): File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/downpour/__init__.py", line 391, in _error failure.raiseException() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/twisted/python/failure.py", line 370, in raiseException raise self.type, self.value, self.tb Error: 500 Internal Server Error Meta Robots Not present/empty Meta Refresh Not present/empty

A menu alias for the forum, could you explain what you mean a little more?

I have no knowledge of SEOMOZ and I don't know what it does.

I do not understand why you are running Python scripts on your Joomla website. Joomla (and Kunena) use PHP.

For information about menu aliases, please go to the Joomla forum. Please also read Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) in our Wiki. Menu alias names must be unique in Joomla. However, you can have alias menus (which are a different thing). Confusing? Yes, we know and understand.

Joomla menus are one of the most difficult things to get exactly right.

So after working with my web host's support it sounds like the actual seomoz bot that crawled my site to do the report caused the CPU to go over 25% causing the 500 errors.
