severe problems

Hello,
today I am having severe problems with xoops.

I wanted to activate one module, but get an error...
"Unable to write to main menu."

Then I wanted to modify a block, but when saving it I get the message: Failed Update of Block ID:...

In the past it always worked fine and I have not made any changes to the system.

What could be the problem?

Then, all the time I was not able to post here anything.
I always got an error "Could not insert forum post"

Hi ummpur.

Check the folder and file permissions on folder cache and the adminmenu.php file under it. This should be set to 777 if running on a *NIX server.

and make sure your firewall is't blocking http referrer information, the system needs that info to check if you have the permissions to perform those actions.

McNaz,
It worked all the time and the folders were always set to 777
anyway, thanks for the idea.

Herko, that my firewall is blocking referrer informations is interesting.

Which would be the referrer, so that I can manually allow it, so that that does not happen again?

Anyway, until today I did not have any problems and I have the firewall already since quite a while.

At least now I can post again. This forum was also blocked and I could not post previously.
