Forbidden Error on Video Embed


james.jenkins1

Question

After mistakenly posting in the wrong place... here I go again.

Whenever I attempt to embed a video (eg a youtube url) I'm unable to save a post. Standard text posts and URL's work fine, but videos don't.

I get the fol error message:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Any advice on how to fix this would be appreciated. I understand it's likely a permissions issue on the index.php file but I've been otherwise unable to diagnose or resolve.

Thanks in advance.

Hey @Head Guru,

Thanks for the response I spent some more time digging around and while File Permissions where my initial suspicion it ended up being mod_security.

Once I had determined that I reached out to my hosting provider and had it whitelisted.

So all resolved :) Mod/admin please close.
