OFA 2.0.2.23 - permission denied

[astricia]

Hi all,

I am working on a new project - WB 2.12.2, PHP 7.3 - and I want to use OFA 2.0.2.23 as I always do.

It installed alright, and I can add fields and entries as usual. But when I want to edit the page settings, as soon as I click "Save", I get a "403 Forbidden" message. "You do not have permission to access this document." How can this happen? I am superadmin and I installed that module myself... ?

Please help!

Thanks,
Astrid

Hi, you have checked via FTP the file- or folder permissions (0644, 0755)?Also the permissions in WB settings > advanced settings > server settings?

Yes. All folders are 0755 - all files are 0644. Everything is the same as always.

I found out that strangely enough sometimes my changes go through - but in most cases they don't. There seems to be no rule as to when the changes go through and when they don't. Is there anywhere else where I can change the header, item-loop and footer section? Only in the database probably..?

I even tried installing a second OFA module, but it shows the same behaviour.

Everything else (so far) works as it should (other modules so far installed are Minislider, MiniHeroBanner and AddonFileEditor).

Maybe some hoster specific rules needed.
E.g. Domain Factory needs RewriteBase /  in the htaccess.

Yes, obviously. I just called the hoster - and they have a web application firewall that prevents such scripts from being executed (mod_security). They have now deactivated it, so hopefully in a few minutes I should be able to work normally...
