endgrp Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 When attempting to like or otherwise react to a post. Problem just started randomly today, seemingly for no reason. Please could Support assist? Many thanks.
Miss_B Posted October 8, 2023 Posted October 8, 2023 Can you check the System Logs and post here the latest messages logged in there? Also, what was the latest change done to the forum before this happening? endgrp 1
endgrp Posted October 8, 2023 Author Posted October 8, 2023 No system logs to display and no changes made recently. I'm not technical unfortunately, I have had the forum installed on the server and it's worked fine for years without issues. I have done the required PHP updates etc. months ago so all is configured ok as far as I am aware. Also it's still working fine on mobile just not on desktop - Chrome specifically. Edge works.
Jim M Posted October 8, 2023 Posted October 8, 2023 Your software is running over HTTP. Is your server attempting to do a redirect to HTTPS by chance? This could render in an error in the AJAX request which is done to complete the reaction action. You can check your browser console by hitting F12 on the keyboard in most browsers and go to the console tab. endgrp 1

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.*****.net/forums/index.php?/topic/1049-posting-issues/#comment-44314' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure manifest 'http://www.*****.net/forums/index.php?/manifest.webmanifest/'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS. How on earth do I fix this without breaking someting (non-techy)? Not sure why this has only just started now after years of working fine. Edited October 9, 2023 by endgrp
Marc Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 Indeed, it seems that the issue described by my colleague. Something is redirecting to https however your site isnt set to use https. You can make your site use https from your conf_global.php file by changing the URL there endgrp 1

Don't want to break anything. 'board_url' => 'http://www.xyz.net/forums',
Solution teraßyte Posted October 14, 2023 Solution Posted October 14, 2023 Yes, change that part to HTTPS and then clear the cache in ACP > Support: endgrp and fileo 2

Unfortunately this is one of the pitfalls of being legacy "self hosted" and non-technical, in my particular case with a micro-micro community. If there were a more cost effective cloud option for under 40 members (forum only) I would just take it for peace of mind, but $89+ per month is out of the question.
