Title: 'Forbidden' warning
Post by: Newportnobby on September 02, 2018, 09:25:11 AM
Twice this morning when trying to PM Bealman I got the message......

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access/SMFN/index.php on this server

I got one away 3rd time lucky. Is the forum trying to excommunicate George?

Strange, as I've only had it once or twice this year.  I just can't replicate it.

I get it occasionally too, usually resolved by a refresh. Only once could I not resolve it, and it seemed to be an external link which caused the problems.

There seems to be a delay when posting.  They may be upgrading the software or maintaining the servers.

I'm getting a "forbidden fruit" warning every time I try to send inappropriate messages of a suggestive nature to NN.  :angel:

That's funny. I've received every one of them.
You do realise there's a huge cost for that service!

Seems to be a recurring problem. I had the same problem on 25th July. I can not workout how to link to the post, but the heading is '403 error'.
