Textpattern 4.5.7 and htaccess
I just installed Textpattern 4.5.7. in a (new for me) web hosting. The site is partially working, I can upload images and write new articles. But in the admin panel the usual admin theme images are not displayed and, most important, if I try to edit pages i get a forbidden 403 error.
Diagnostics say:
The following PHP functions (which may be necessary to run Textpattern) are disabled on your server: show_source, phpinfo, shell, symlink,
As far as I understand show_source and phpinfo are not strictly necessary.
What about shell and symlink?
Can I just edit the .htaccess file? And if so, what?
#DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
#Options +FollowSymLinks
#Options -Indexes
#ErrorDocument 403 default
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
#RewriteBase /relative/web/path/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(.+) - [PT,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !=/favicon.ico
RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} !^$
RewriteRule .* - [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
</IfModule>
#php_value register_globals 0
# SVG
AddType image/svg+xml svg svgz
AddEncoding gzip svgzThanks

Re: Textpattern 4.5.7 and htaccess
No, uploading a .htaccess file in my textpattern folder did not solve the problem.
Contacted my host.
Now my php.ini is:
NEW CONFIG: disable_functions = system, passthru, exec, popen, proc_open
and in diagnostics everything is fine.
But editing some pages (i.e. default page) gives Error 403! /textpattern/index.php Forbidden!.
What is strange is that other pages can be edited and saved normally. Forms too. Now I can install plugins. But 3 or 4 pages cannot be saved.
The site has been developed locally and I uploaded my backup MySql db.
What else can I try?

Another .htaccess edit – you can edit the one in the root so you don’t have to maintain two files:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
<Files textpattern/index.php>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</Files>
</IfModule>Does that help?

Re: Textpattern 4.5.7 and htaccess
Some of my websites have difficulties saving data that contains http:// and that’s because server’s firewall thinks something bad is happening (thus giving 403 instead of allowing data to be saved). Maybe your hosting provider has similar settings.

Hi kuopassa,
sorry for not replying you sooner.
I just checked your suggestion, deleting every http:// occurrency.
Now, I succeeded saving some pages (not all), so it seems the problem is due to the server’s firewall settings.
Still there are two pages I can’t save (one of them is the error_default page). Very strange. I will investigate further.
At the moment your suggestion is the only one partially working, but it solved most of my problems.
Thanks a lot.
