Yet nobody has posted a link so that the Dev team can see what's going on. Hmmmm, must not be as serious as it sounds.

Dr. Goodman, these people are here to help you, not to serve you. I think you could try to show a little more respect and do as they ask if you want their help.

There is just an internal site for the time beeing. I have closed shop at this time.

It turns out that 98% of the traffic I got is from spambots, worminfestations, crackers, searchbots and Image/file leaches.

So when I solve this I'm moving my site out to a commercial server and close all ports on my home LAN.

( I've only opened for a few minutes so Trinio could have a look. )


BrainSmashR:

Respect?? What do you mean? Think you got something compleatly wrong.

OK, here's the deal.

If your getting the ACCESS DENIED I need a MINIMUM of 2 things from the user.

1) Link-> It doesn't have to be active. The new security checks the URI for invalid characters. So the link you provide should at least be valid for your domain and a test page or other site.

2( The EXACT message, Including "!". The number of "!" tells me what type of error is causing the access denied during initial site access.

For example:

! ACCESS DENIED ! = URI check failed -> contained invalid characters

!! ACCESS DENIED !! = GP check failed

!!! ACCESS DENIED !!! = GPC Check failed



And the new ones I just changed to make it easier to identify ( does NOT apply to the current distro ):



!! ACCESS DENIED !! = Direct script access on non-accessible
scripts or parser error in certain situations ( those where the require
mainfile isn't generating the error )

!- ACCESS DENIED -! = URI Check Failed
!-! ACCESS DENIED !-! = GP Check Failed
!!-! ACCESS DENIED !-!! = GPC Check failed

!--! ACCESS DENIED !--! = Admin not super in MPN admin protected
submit areas

!-!-! ACCESS DENIED !-!-! = Admin not super in Nuke admin protected
submit areas


These all apply to initial script access.
