Hi all. Qualified help is urgently needed :'(
I am in charge of my Ph.D. tutor's site
http://www.canipa.net/doku.php
I only edit texts and upload PDFs and audio files, but have ZERO knowledge of how PHP works.
For a few weeks, I have been unable to edit any texts on most pages of the site.
As soon as I click on Preview or Save, the following appears:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /doku.php on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
On a few pages, such as the Playground, changes are still possible SOMETIMES, meaning that I may edit and save successfully at a certain point in time, and be prevented from doing so just a few seconds later, or vice versa, apparently with no predictable pattern.
The most crucial page, the "PDF" page, has remained 100% uneditable no matter how many attempts I have made, either by reducing the contents, removing all formatting, or deleting all contents and republishing them paragraph by paragraph. Nothing works.
I have tried to connect to DokuWiki via different devices (iPad, Mac, PC) and with different accounts, and through different Internet providers. Same thing.
I have also read all the references I could find re the "403 problem", including in this forum and on a specific DokuWiki page, but due to my inexistent PHP expertise, I cannot assess whether those references apply to my own case, which I have no idea how to fix.
Waiting for a compassionate philanthropist who can help me sort this out. Thanks!
