Hello,

I just installed fresh 2.0.2

Now when i try to install new themes (via theme installation) or mods (via package manager), i keep getting error 500

It doesnt even upload

CHMOD is 0755 on all important directories

When i refresh the page, i get back to forum but having actual error message: Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.

I am logged in

I dont understand what is wrong. Might be something to do with server.

Mods will install if i specify URL and not upload the zip package

Any ideas?

Thank you!

Im getting error 403 Forbidden

Alright, something about permissions then.. hmm

jepelton

Cant understand what part of the permissions isnt correct. I have standard permissions set now for sure but still that error keeps coming

I suspect your host hasn't given you full ownership of the files on your site, mate.

Give 'em a nudge. ;) (It's a CHOWN thing, not CHMOD).

Whilst you're at it, ask them to disable mod_security, too. Coz that's bound to crop up, sometime. ;)

Sent them message to check permissions


Big thanks :)

Pleasure, my ol' china! Let us know how it goes, yeah?

Problem solved!

It was caused by firewall

Adding this into htaccess file fixed it:

<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
