Hi,
The description said "No question too simple!", so here goes:
Running Apache 2 webserver (standard install) and MediaWiki. I try and upload images from any of my home PC's into MediaWiki and I get "The connection was reset" error page. Looking in the Apache error log I find
-------------------------------
mod_security: Access denied with code 500. read_post_payload: Failed to create file "E:/www/tmp/20061005-211419-request_body-a02592" because 2("No such file or directory") [hostname "xxxx.org"] [uri "/wiki/index.php/Special:Upload"]
-------------------------------
*xxxx.org is my web address.
It used to work at home, but one day it while uploading I started to get the error page, and now I can't. I didn't intentionally change anything.
The crazy thing is, I can upload files from work, but not from home or even the PC the server is on. This driving me nuts, the only snipit of info I have found is that it has something to do with "serverside security policy" and I can't find anything on the web about a fix for this error. Help please! |

The error massage says you are using mod_security.
Try first without mod_security and when that works, adjust your mod-security settings/rules.
