I have been getting this message occasionally when trying to preview or submit posts recently:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /forum/posting.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.37 Server at http://www.pinkpt.com Port 80


It appears almost randomly on various topics, but mostly when trying to preview my SSBB game update before posting them.

Any hints to help?

Edit: I shouldn't be awake right now, but I am and I did a few quick tests. I can preview all except part of my update. If I leave that part out, I can preview and post. I cannot even post the part separately.

Edit 2: After a little more testing, I traced it down to one line that can be omitted with ease. I guess my problem is solved and this can be locked or whatever, but I would still like to know what happened if anyone has an idea. Thanks!

Hold on one second, I seem to remember dealing with a similar problem last year, let me go find my post about it.

Ok, it was Twizzler0171 that was having the problem and she was getting that exact error. It had to do specificaly with the post she was trying to make.. obviously the same problem you are having.

Hunter looked into it, but there is no post detailing a solution. I think its possible Hunter directly PM'd Twizzler. I'll PM him.

Can you post a link to the text that was creating the error, or something?

The line of text that I had to remove. (Yep, only one line out of 14//15 pages) was:

Ozzie and Lynx- Chrono Trigger/Cross - Last scene


I had used all of those words in some fashion in previous posts. There should be a space after Lynx. (and no period <-there) but if I put on in, I get the 'forbidden' warning.

Hold on...

It's returning an error for me, too!

I'll try bunches of these.

L ...works

ynx ...works

Lyn ...works

Lynxx ...works

It seems the zeeky-word is the only one not working.

Just avoid the magic word and you'll be fine. :)

I'll keep that in mind next time I want to make a Chrono Cross reference :P
