If I'm understanding you correctly, the server understands the request, and is trying to fulfill it, but because of a data problem is unable to do so.

500 Internal Server Error

The 500 (Internal Server Error) status code indicates that the server encountered an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request.
