internal server error when editting submissions

[Ezekel]

whenever i attempt to edit ctf_underhanded's thread 1st post or downloads page, i get the following:

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@forums.tf2maps.net and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

i have been having this problem now for a week. however, i am able to successfully edit other submissions i have made.

as this is a contest entry, i'm sure you can understand why i'm feeling concerned about this situation

I get it when trying to make a new post to thread #9602.

I had this exact same problem when editing the OP in my Custom Blend Materials tutorial. And I (kind of) found the problem. I have no idea why, but whenever I tried to edit the post and add anything that contained the word "from" (no quotes of course), I encountered this error. Removing the word "from" fixed the problem. :blink:

its a security module for apache, ill get this sorted out today. sorry about the problem.

 

[Ezekel]

[drp]

[Ezekel]

try it again please

I'm still getting the error too, but I have no "from" inside my post.

Instead it decides to choke up when I use the word "delete".

FYI, using the "Go Advanced" button or post previewing a post is a fast way to test without actually making a new post if it succeeds.

is this while you're editing a post or making a new one?

 

[Ezekel]

problem appears to be resolved now.

thank you very much

 

[Terr]

In my case, it was a new post.

Right now I'm typing in the "Quick Reply" box to this thread.

I can't successfully post while having the phrase "delete_from" (without the underscore) present. Blocking common words seems like a lousy way to prevent injection attacks

its a trial by error basis when whitelisting stuff, sorry

 

[drp]

please try again Terr, let me know if you still have an issue.

 

[Terr]

Just tried to post "delete_from" (no underscore) and it refused.

 

[lana]

So we're not allowed to post commonly used phrases, like delete from?

 

[drp]

added more general rules for the forum, please try it again and let me know if you still have problems.

 

[lana]

That did something. You can post with delete from in the message.
