Fucking finally.

I was getting a little worried.

Is there an active notification path when the board is down?

Jul 3, 2019#6

I can't seem to upload images or files to attach them to posts. Did we lose that functionality?

Jul 3, 2019#7

grub

Clicking insert image works. attaching files not so much.

My phone is going here, my desktops, both work and home, insist on going to the old board. Anyone have an ip to force them to load this place?

Or Facebook.

I’m traveling and will look at the image thing once I get there.

Looks like the image embed still works, but using the attach function does not.

Jul 3, 2019#12

GasBandit

Odd... it looks like you can attach with drag and drop... but not with the "attach files" link...

I'm looking into it too but my ability to do so at work is very curtailed.

... and it doesn't help that it doesn't seem to be generating errors in the server error log or anything. Hrmmmm...

I don't have a FB account anymore, but I was glad that I could see the HF page to know what was up.

Jul 3, 2019#14

GasBandit

Judging from what I'm reading here, it might be an issue with the new host's firewall if it uses ModSecurity, or our SSL.

New host who dis?

Try flushing your DNS cache.

Can't at work...but it corrected itself an hour or so later.

So it works and I don’t have to do anything?

He was talking about a different thing. The attachments thing is still happening (clicking attach doesn't successfully upload, but drag and drop does). Probably have to open another ticket with the host and ask them if they're using Modsec.

Didn't we have some sort of plug-in / add-on that was allowing multiple files to be uploaded at once? I remember when that feature was broken on Firefox and I had to opt-out in the settings. Did that feature get broken in the server move?

I can confirm error messages when on mobile trying to attach an image.

Jul 14, 2019#22

No addons were nuked. I wonder if it was something the host added. Damn. Time to ask some questions.

Ask them specifically if they're using ModSecurity ("ModSec")

Jul 15, 2019#24

Dave

Do we need them to NOT use ModSec or do they need to have it?

If they are using it, it could be causing this problem.

Jul 23, 2019#26

Dave

Put in another ticket. I didn't mention ModSec the first time because the information came to me after I'd opened it.

Jul 23, 2019#27

Dave

Love their response:

We have noticed several ModSecurity rules triggered on your domain. Please provide us with your local (external) IP to make sure that they are triggered by you. You can find it following this link http://ip.web-hosting.com We will be happy to whitelist them for you.

Uh...you SURE you want to do this by individual IP addresses?

Jul 23, 2019#28

Dave

Well that was interesting. They actually whitelisted every IP that triggered the error. Yeah, that'll work I guess, but not for anyone new or one of us on vacation or at a different IP. Sheesh.

Jul 23, 2019#29

GasBandit

Case in point, still not working when I'm on the road

just tell them to shut that shit off.

Jul 23, 2019#30

Dave

You'd think that would be the answer but I think they don't want to turn it off.

Time to start looking for a new host I guess.

Then explain to them that you have over 80 users from constantly changing IP addresses all over the world, so whitelisting isn't going to be a feasible option.

Jul 23, 2019#34

Dave

Their response:

We are happy to let you know that the firewall rules that are already whitelisted will not trigger again for any IP address.

Please test. They say it won't happen for ANY IP now.

Jul 23, 2019#35

Dave

Nope.

I'm thinking about changing my hair colour to this. What do y'all think?

I couldn't attach this file but was able to drag & drop.

Jul 23, 2019#37

Told them to just turn it off. We'll see how they react.

It works now.

Everyone get your BINGO cards ready. I'm posting ferrety pictures.

Jul 23, 2019#44

Well, the TAMU HSC is ok... let me check something else.

Jul 23, 2019#45

GasBandit

Test from Google fi...

Edit: Welp, seems to be working now. I'll do further testing when next I'm out at yet another new job site, probably in a week or two.

(By the way, you'd look beautiful, my queen, but I'm afraid you'd do it for nefarious purposes.
Well, a second round of nefarious purposes, anyway.)

Nefarious purposes are the best purposes.

If you think I'm doing it to make @GasBandit's head pop, you're right.

This is one of those sentences where individually emphasizing each word changes the meaning.
THERE'S a surprise.
There's A surprise.
There's a SURPRISE.

Also that pic is adorable, even if it does unfortunately lend itself to innuendo.

I admit that “going there” was a temptation, but I managed not to.
I don’t envy you the task of having to keep its little nose clean all the time, though. I know that the smoosh-faced cats need extra care, especially when they’re young.
