Error on submit of simple form

samoht 25 Jun, 2008
Hello,

I am trying to test Chrono Forms on my site
and I keep getting this error on submit

You are not allowed to access this URL directly, POST array is empty



here is my simple form:
<div><strong>Name:</strong></div>
  <input name="name" id="name" type="text" value="">
<div><strong>Email:</strong></div>
  <input name="email" id="email" type="text" value"">
<div><strong>Your Message:</strong></div>
  <textarea rows="5" name="msg" cols="27" class="required"></textarea>
<div><input name="submit" value="Submit" type="submit" /></div>


what am I doing wrong?

Thanks [file name=tellusform.cfbak size=2677]http://www.chronoengine.com/images/fbfiles/files/tellusform.cfbak[/file]

I'm getting the same exact error when you click submit but i'm also seeing the "500 Internal Server Error" when i open my form from the admin panel to make edits then click save, but it doesnt really matter whcih one i hit, Save, Cancel, Apply, they all produce the "500 Internal Server ErrorWhat's crazy is the form's been working just fine and now out of the blue i'm seeing this.

Man i need a solution to this as soon as possible please.

Ok, my problem was associated with a setting on my server. I had my host reinstall the GD library last week and what ever they did to fix the GD library messed up the form. The support guy told me that both errors messages i was receiving was due to a mod_sec rule issue. What ever that is. So he disabled the rules and now it works correctly.

Hi Mark,

Well done. Glad it's fixed. IIRC mod_sec or mod_security is an Apache module that sometimes protects and almost always causes problems.
