[SOLVED] Problem with updating pages-submit and apply redirect to main site page

[geometrikal]

Hi all,

Further to my post: http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php/topic,35122.msg165902.html#msg165902

Updating pages and some other basic admin functions where "submit" or "apply" doesn't work. For example, if I modify a page and press submit, it simple loads the main site page. Going back into the admin pages I find the modifications haven't stuck.

Any ideas on the problem or a method of trouble shooting?

Thanks
Ross

edit your config.php file and set debug to true.

No luck. Still does the same thing - spits me out to the main page, just with debug info for the main page now. Why would it redirect me to the main page??

[Jeff]

have you checked the http error logs?

[geometrikal]

Hi ajprog,

How do I check the http error logs?

I just installed a brand new 1.6 CMSMS in a new directory and the same prolem exists... It must be a site problem... ahhh

[geometrikal]

cPanel shows no errors in error log either

Offhand check out this post:
http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 607.0.html

[geometrikal]

so far no luck... i made the changes described but it didn't fix anything

[geometrikal]

also i find out it really is apache that is running, not IIS

[geometrikal]

SOLVED - The web hosting company changed some security setting. Also made other cmses like ModX not work

[Jeff]

Any chance you know what settings? Incase other people have the same problem.

[geometrikal]

Yes, I just received a reply from the tech support:

We have implemented mod_security on the server which was causing problem to your site. Please let us know if we can assist you further.

Perhaps CMSMS could check for mod_security? Is that even possible?

Thanks for all the replies
