Error 500 internal server error, not handled by laravel

I think there are many posts about error 500 on this forum and other forums, but the error code 500s I got before were "handled by Laravel" and by that I mean Laravel styled them and showed them in the center of the page etc. This one however is plain HTML. Now I'm trying to troubleshoot it, I have recently changed my php.ini files, the weird thing is not on the server that gives the error, on a download server connected to it. Anyways because this error is too generic I just wanted to know the fact that Laravel didn't handle it can be a hint to search specific places
