Forbidden to access

[Vombatti]

I got this error very often when I try reply to post :

“Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /newreply.php on this server.
Server unable to read htaccess file, denying access to be safe.”

Copy your reply in case it goes lost and refresh the page and try replying again. It sounds like an error the forum sometimes gets.

I get that same message too when I go into a sub forum (no specific one). It's only been happening for the past week quite frequently and I didn't this experience last year. I just refresh the page and it goes away.

It’s happened to me off and on for years, and sometimes it’s more frequent than other times. I’ve noticed it for a couple of days, including just this morning. Sometimes it says I don’t have permission to view my own profile page. The first time it happened scared me to no end, lol.

Refreshing the page, as Lemon said, often works for me. Otherwise I go somewhere else for several seconds and then come back (so the forums as a whole reload).

Anyone else keep getting this in the past few days.
Refresh sorts it after a few times, but this... Forbidden to access the site is a bit weird.

Yes, It happens to me a lot. If anyone has any idea why it happens, please reply.

Me too. Every time I try to open a page the forbidden to access white page comes up sometimes and I have to refres it to get rid of it.

We don't know why it is happening - and it is happening to us mods as well.

It has been reported.

It just happened to me when I clicked this thread.it is happening a lot these days and sometimes in awkward moments like replying to someone.
