Codeigniter actually has a custom 500 error page. If you find your getting a generic 500 error page, it could be Apache overriding the codeiginter 500 error page.

ErrorDocument 500 /errors/500.html

You could also edit the codeiginter 500 error page found in /application/errors/. I think it is the error_php.php file.
