Hi, I was trying to do a file check of the forum, but it seems to have an error.
There was a problem communicating with the MyBB server. Please try again in a few minutes.
I uploaded the file_verification.php from the latest MyBB package, but it did not resolved the issue (1.8.19). Is there a way to resolved this issue?

Troubleshooting this can be quite difficult, as there are several possible causes:
- Misconfiguration on the server running your forum, preventing the outgoing request
- CloudFlare blocking the request from the server running your forum, can be caused by the host having a number of other clients on the same server that have been doing unsavoury things (eg: sending spam emails)
- GitHub Pages refusing the request for whatever reason or encountering an error - we host the file verification files on GitHub Pages along with the rest of the main mybb.com site, for example here is the file verification page for 1.8.19: https://mybb.com/checksums/release_mybb_1819.txt or the raw page source here: https://github.com/mybb/mybb.com/blob/gh...b_1819.txt
We did receive a bug report on GitHub regarding the version script code inside MyBB having a minor bug that will be resolved, but this shouldn't affect file verification:

Are you using shared hosting or are you using a VPS? If you're using a VPS or a server where you have SSH access, you could try downloading the above linked file with curl or wget and see what the output is which would help debug.
