File directory path is not writable: files I can not edit a file
Hi
I have a strange behavior on my site. I can not edit just one old post, I can edit the other posts and I can post a new one but this one old article will not save and give me a permission warning.
When I run the diagnostics I get
File directory path is not writable: files
I have all the permissions at 755 I tried to change the files folder to 777 that did not change the diagnostics or the ability to edit this one file.
When trying to save the edited file I get this:
The page you are trying to access is restricted due to a security rule.
If you believe the security rule is affecting the normal operation of your website, contact your host support team and provide detailed instructions how to recreate this error.
They will be able to assist you with rectifying the problem and adjusting the security configuration if needed.”
Here is the diagnosis run:

Re: File directory path is not writable: files I can not edit a file
Hey Ted – welcome back.
Try adding this to your .htaccess file:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecRuleEngine Off
SecFilterInheritance Off
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>Does that help?
