I have a problem with my SilverStripe site after a server upgrade to PHP 5.6. My web host upgraded the server from PHP 5.3 to PHP 5.6 and now a 500 server error occurs on every page.
The message from SilverStripe is:
Sorry, there was a problem with handling your request.
In the server error log files there are no error entries. In the server access log you can see the 500 error:
ERROR: [09/Mar/2016:11:12:07 +0100] "GET /Security/login?BackURL=%2Fadmin HTTP/1.1" 500 11398 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.75 Safari/537.36"
Next entry in file is OK:
[09/Mar/2016:11:12:08 +0100] "GET /themes/ustheme/css/us.style.css HTTP/1.1" 304 0 "http://www.example.com/Security/login?BackURL=%2Fadmin" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.75 Safari/537.36"
How do I debug and fix this problem?

First try to flush the site cache as suggested by Simon Erkelens.
Sometimes flushing the cache will not work. This may be because the SilverStripe version cannot handle the PHP version.
If our site is on a server with cPanel some web hosts allow us to select the PHP version through cPanel. This feature is not on every server with cPanel but hopefully this becomes more common.
Select PHP version may be found in the cPanel software panel:
On the PHP selector screen there is a PHP version select box allowing us to select a PHP version. To change PHP version select an option from the PHP version select box and press the Set as current button. Flush the site cache to see if the site now works.
I recommend using the newest version of PHP that will work with the SilverStripe site so that it is as secure and stable as possible.

When switching PHP-version, your cache needs to be flushed. Switch your site to dev-mode to flush without having to logon. Or just delete your cache-directory (or create a root-directory named silverstripe-cache.)
