Really? Anyone else here a threat to security? - Texjbird - 04-18-2021
W T F!!!!I JUST GOT AN ERROR. I THINK IT WAS NUMBER 403, THAT I DIDN'T HAVE THE ACCESSIBILITY TO CHANGE MY SIGNATURE DUE TO SECURITY ON VAN DWELLERFORM.COM.
THEN I HAD TO VERIFY THAT I'M NOT AN EFFING ROBOT. ALSO GO BLIND IN ONE EYE AND CROSS EYED IN THE OTHER TRYING TO ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS ABOUT TAP EVER SQUARE THAT HAS BICYCLES IN IT, THEN THE ONE WITH BRIDGES IN IT, THEN THE ONE WITH STREET LIGHTS IN IT. THEN SOMEBODY WAVED A MAGIC WAND OVER ME AND I WAS SECURE ENOUGH TO GET ON HERE. THINK I'LL GO WATCH SOME YOUTUBE
TJB + Q + RD
P.S. THIS AIN'T FUNNY AND WE AIN'T LAUGHING

https://community.mybb.com/thread-230948.html?highlight=mod_security
looks to be something to do with something called mod_security,think i will send the host a message like recommended

I found this line in the bottom link you just posted...
FINAL EDIT: Figured it out! Internet search led us to this old thread that had the same issue; going into the mybb folder and changing "htaccess.txt" into ".htaccess" stopped the thing entirely.
I never explored that part of the site....
That make any sense to you BT ?

besides the 1000 options in the admin page at the host is all the files that open up to more file that open up to more files
sent the host a message lets see if they can help,they usually can,the modsecurity is on that side of things
modsecurity is a security program https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ModSecurity

Yeah ,when in doubt , let them figure it out.....or try anyway.
RE: Really? Anyone else here a threat to security? - Blacktank - 04-24-2021
host didnt help much,turnoff modsecurity and it works,left a message at mybb,see if that fix is legit or not
