Access to Message Boards

Post by mhollidaze »

Since I stared using a new laptop I've been getting this message;


Forbidden

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

Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) Server at forum.simbaseball.com Port 80


I've still been able to access from my other computers and iPhone, just the one laptop. My other laptop is a Toshiba just like the one I can't access on.

Any suggestions or ideas what to do?

Try logging out of SimD then log back in. That usually works.

Thanks ballmark. Tried that, still not working. Just the one computer. Not sure why?

Any other suggestions?

Try clearing your cache. Then log out of SimD and log back in.

If all else fails, click the Support link on the "Help" menu and then click "New Ticket" in upper right corner of support page.

If *that* fails, contact SimD via their Facebook page.

Sorry you're having issues, man.

Thanks for your help ballmark. I can do everything on my laptop except message boards. I've been accessing from my iPhone.

I'll try what you suggested and see where it takes me!

Is it from a particular link in the game? Not all links in the game may be pointing to the right forum yet. If it's from a link, let me know and I'll track it down. I fixed a bunch of these last night.

Wait... it's forum.simbaseball.com? That DNS probably hasn't been updated. I'll get it fixed. forum.simdynasty.com is working but the alternates aren't.

Thanks Chris. Let me provide you with a little more info. I have access to 4 computers and 1 smart phone. I just started using my wife's Toshiba Laptop. From the first time I started using it when I go to Standings I see the message above. I can see the standings and access all other tabs and pages but below the Standings I see the message;

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /viewforum.php on this server.
Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) Server at forum.simbaseball.com Port 80

This same message appears when I go to the Message Board tab.

I tried the log out and shut down as ballmark suggested but no help. I thought it might be the laptop and checked the settings and don't see anything different then are on the other laptops.

Still trying to figure out so any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, mhollidaze Mike Holliday

The laptop is using simbaseball.com rather than simdynasty.com. Can you get to simdynasty.com from the laptop?

WOW, that was it. I'm in, Thanks Chris.

Didn't realize I was in under the wrong website, or that there was a wrong website. I think when I typed in the link it automatically went to simbaseball. When I just changed and typed in simd it went automatically to simdynasty.

Thanks,
Mike
