Moving a topic with redirect

[Lucarella]

Hi guys, I've been having a problem for a while now and I can't figure out the cause.
Basically, when I have to move a topic to another section, I do the classic procedure and, if I leave the option to create a redirect topic in the same section active, the latter is created but the original is not moved and I get the http 500 error.
To move the topic, I have to remove the option to create a redirect topic.
Nothing about it appears in the error log...

It's not a serious error, I can live with it, but the redirect topic is a nice feature, especially because it self-deletes after the chosen time interval and I don't want to lose it.... Can we solve it?

At the beginning, after switching to SMF 2.1 it worked well



Thanks

Try emptying your forum's file cache first, then create a test topic, try to move it following the exact same steps.
If it fails again, look at your forum and server error logs at around the time of the move.
Most likely, something should get logged, and whatever it is might explain the issue.

Done but there is no trace left in the SMF error log nor on the cpanel, completely nothing.
More info that I did not describe before: the redirect topic is created but the original topic has not been moved.

Well, demonstrably there should be something - You shared a screenshot of a HTTP 500 error, and that is a server side error that honestly should always be logged. If it is not, then contact your host and ask them about it.

Does the same problem occur on the default theme?

I think I found the cause of the problem and it is the Autorespond 2.1 mod.
In fact, from the server error log (obtained after contacting the hosting) I saw this error

Is there a way to solve it?

Now I send the link of this post also in the topic dedicated to the mod, hoping that together we can find a good solution.

Thanks
