We got a 500 ISE from the symbol upload API today, but it was transient and retrying would have worked. We don't currently retry on 500.
I have a patch, I tested locally with a python httpd that alternates returning 500 and 200: 0:01.36 Uploading symbol file "dist/firefox-41.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.crashreporter-symbols-full.zip" to "http://0.0.0.0:48030/"... 0:03.10 Error: got HTTP response 500: Internal Server Error 0:03.11 Response body: 0:03.11 ==================== 0:03.11 <head> 0:03.11 <title>Error response</title> 0:03.11 </head> 0:03.11 <body> 0:03.11 <h1>Error response</h1> 0:03.11 <p>Error code 500. 0:03.11 <p>Message: Internal Server Error. 0:03.11 <p>Error code explanation: 500 = Server got itself in trouble. 0:03.11 </body> 0:03.11 0:03.11 ==================== 0:03.11 0:03.11 Retrying... 0:15.85 Uploaded successfully!

As it stands, we don't have a good way of measuring 500 frequency from clients. If there's one thing I've learned from services it's that server logs only tell part of the story.

You mean log something in the loop here for every request it makes?
