So yeah. The website is broken, as people may or may not have noticed. Only using the direct forum URL works. Anything that requires the ucp.php (login, messages, etc.) does not.

Plz fix Titan

Ah not just me then eh?

Aydun · 24 Jun 2014, 8:46 pm

Haha nope

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /forums/ucp.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Is the error message everyones getting summit like this:

Dynamite · 24 Jun 2014, 9:39 pm

Yep that's what I get also.

Aydun · 24 Jun 2014, 10:34 pm

Ya, same problem that was affecting emails (but different file). The permission settings don't allow the server to access the ucp.php file. Strange that the permission settings were changed

Titan · 25 Jun 2014, 4:45 pm

Working on it guys.

Nuggs · 25 Jun 2014, 5:19 pm

I'm back, so something must have worked

No+Pro · 25 Jun 2014, 5:31 pm

I could get in but not into messaging, can do so now so mebbe all good then?

Titan · 25 Jun 2014, 5:51 pm

Well its ok for NOW.

However this issue may come back sooner or later due to amout of traffic to our site, just some stats for you all:
- From 1st of Jan this year to now we have had already 23,057 unique visitors.
- Every day from 200 to 500 people visit these forums.

Hits from Australia = 95,359
Hits from USA = 19,024
Hits from Ukraine = 11,352
Hits from Russia = 4,674
Hits from China = 3,157

So ill just leave it here....

Agreed haha. Was very boring checking the forums over the last few days with no new posts each time.

Oh and you are probably aware Titan, but functions_messenger.php is still broken. I got the error replying to this thread.

timdole · 25 Jun 2014, 10:00 pm

So all of a sudden we've become a coding site for phpBB.

If you google for the error, it's at the top of the search!

Was hoping it could be a quick fix but looks a bit more complicated. Maybe the hosting provider has done something on the system. I had issues before on my old website when the host got migrated and gave up.

Aydun · 26 Jun 2014, 5:06 pm

That's a different problem (if it's the same page from Google I looked at

) This here is just a linux permissions issue. Presumably the apache user can't access the aforementioned file due to it's permissions.

This is what you get when trying to access it's URI:
http://www.uega.net/forums/includes/functions_messenger.php

Where you should just see a blank page (like on this other forum):
http://forum.qnap.com/includes/functions_messenger.php

theedge · 26 Jun 2014, 7:30 pm

What I was referring to is if you search the error and php file, UEGA appears on the google search.

I'm hoping it's as trivial as chmod 755 ...
