Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted July 28, 201311 yr Hi all, I have submitted a ticket on this but hoping someone here has a quick solution for me. I am trying to use the htaccess method via the admin cp but when I click save I am presented with the following page: Method Not Implemented GET to /boards/admin/index.php not supported. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. This happens and the settings do not save. Here is my htaccess file: <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /boards/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule .(jpeg|jpg|gif|png)$ /boards/public/404.php [NC,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /boards/index.php [L] </IfModule> Would any of you nice people know why I keep being presented with the page above when I try to save the settings please? mod_rewrite is on and ok. Many thanks.
July 28, 201311 yr At a (random) guess its a mod security concern as its doing a 501 (I think its a 501 for not implemented) and a 404, this reminds me of it throwing a 403 and a 404 together which is usually a mod security issue. To be honest, Its best to ask your host about this, although if you wanted to try yourself (I'd ask them first as it may not work) add the following to the top of the .htaccess file, remove it if its worse or does not work. SecFilterEngine Off
July 28, 201311 yr Author Did'nt work Im afraid. It just caused the whole site to go off. Thanks anyway.
July 28, 201311 yr Did'nt work Im afraid. It just caused the whole site to go off. Thanks anyway. It can do that, usually a 500 error. In that case remove the line and ask your host. :) It does point to a server configuration concern.
July 28, 201311 yr Author Yep, they just responded and have removed the restriction. All working fine now. Thank you very much for your help.
