File field not working?
How Do I?
Hi. On updating to 5.2.3 my file fields are no longer working for me. They appear to be loading but dont display. I’m wondering if someone might be able to help me with this? Thanks.
My first bet would be a mod_security issue- take a look at the discussion here: https://expressionengine.com/forums/topic/252252/problem-with-bluehost-and-mod_security
It’s pretty easy to tell. Go edit an entry with a file field on it. Open up your browser dev tools and take a look at the network traffic- refresh the page if you need to.
I’m betting you’re getting a 404 or 500 or something bad on a couple of combo_load pages pulling in javascript. If you go directly to the URL in question, you may even get a message saying something like ‘mod_security rejects all your stuff’.
That look likely?
Yes, you were right. It was a modsecurity rule and white listing my domains was the solution. Thanks a lot for your help.
Glad that was it and thanks for confirming!
