Topic: Few problems...

Worked fine on my Windows box, but I recently uploaded punBB to my server and I'm having problems.

I forgot to change the Base URL, so I went into Options to change it, and it gives me a 500 error. I CHMOD the cache DIR to 777 and it allowed me to change the base URL to "www.google.com" (I know I needed "http://www.google.com"). It worked. I thought all was good.

I tried to change it to "http://www.google.com" and it gave me a 500 error again. If I put "http://", it errors.

I thought "Oh well, I'll edit it via phpMyAdmin" - I changed it via phpMyAdmin, but it won't update on the options page.

I'm still getting 500 errors.

Any idea?

Now I can't even post, or do nearly anything without 500 server errors.

Delete all the files in the cache folder and chmod it again.

And why the hell are you setting your base url to google? >=/

Re: Few problems...

Done... For some reason, when I cleared the cache DIR, the URL was auto on "http://"

I'm trying to post a topic, but I keep getting 500 server errors still... sad Help!

Re: Few problems...

Whenever I try to make a thread in "Media", called "New R6 Wheelies", with the following content:

Bare in mind, this is Tony's first attempt at wheelieing his R6, and this is my 2nd go on the bike (I only had 2 attempts, and they were both pretty special. tongue)

I get this error message:

Re: Few problems...

Weird. Maybe you have some mod_security rules that block words in that that post or so =/

Re: Few problems...

I dunno. It's a completely standard version of punBB, apart from a few tiny modifcations that wouldn't effect it.

Re: Few problems...

mod_security has nothing to do with PunBB wink It's a protection that comes from your host and analyses POST data.

Re: Few problems...

You could always just contact them and ask what's going on tongue

Re: Few problems...

They won't make security any less strict apparantly.
