I was recently working on an article detailing how to install TrueCrypt 5.1a on Ubuntu 8.04. I had just written another article minutes earlier, so I knew everything was fine with WordPress at that time.
This time, however, everytime I chose to Save the article, I was given an error.
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /blog/wp-admin/post.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
After deactivating my plugins, changing permissions to post.php and drinking a few beers, I finally found the problem.
For some reason, WordPress didn’t like the character combination of ‘wget h’. In the first step, you need to run the command ‘wget http://www.truecrypt.org/downloads/truecrypt-5.1a-ubuntu-x86.tar.gz” to download the TrueCrypt file.
I was finally able to get around it by adding a non-breaking space ( ) between the ‘wget’ and the ‘h’
Is this a SQL injection safeguard or just a weird bug? Can anyone else replicate it? Anyone?
