Full Version: [Solved] http post method connection issue?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I set up a clean install of myBB forum in a share-hosting.

However the "post thread" function is broken.
I put "test" in subject and content, and click the "post thread" button.
Chrome displayed error message is 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE),
Opera displayed error message is "Connection closed by remote server".
The post is not saved.

I tried some other functions, and found "Admin CP > Users > Edit User" will fail too.
Edited the user information and click "save" will fail to get server feedback, and the information is not changed.
I consider it was post max size issue, but it's 8M, and I used "Admin CP > Preferences & Personal Notes" to verify post max size.
I tried "Admin CP > Preferences & Personal Notes" with over 10KB string, and it saved correctly.

The other PHP applications I made using form post method are all operated correctly.

I tried to make the same clean install on another web-hosting server (the domain pointer set to another domain),
the posting function is fine.

There is no error in apache log.
Apache Usage Log does not contain those fail http post method.
Does this mean these requests were never handled by Apache HTTP server?

I think it might be a server related issue, and ask the share-hosting owner.
He said that there is no proxy in front of Apache, and since it's not in the Apache error log, it's an error within PHP.
If it's PHP error, myBB should mail me the exception, but it didn't.
(I received another exception mail, the exception mailing is working and I checked SPAM folder)

If there is any help, I'll appreciate it.
Thanks.

I used phpMyAdmin import function to do sql commands, but the file upload http post method failed too, then I executed sql commands in sql textarea successfully.
The index page of phpMyadmin stated "Server running with Suhosin. Please refer to documentation for possible issues."

I guess that these http post failure issues are the same reason due to Suhosin settings.

I contacted the share-hosting owner, and he solved this issue.
