I am posting here because all other forum say it's a server environ issue.

I have a site with the ModX CMS on it hosted on a GoDaddy server (not sure about the specific setup is as client has forgotten login details). For some reason (mod_security?) I cannot save any string via the CMS that incorporates http:// or https:// to the MySQL database.

I've got similar sites (that are not hosted on GoDaddy) that work fine.

Is there some file or set up (Apache?) that blocks me from saving certain strings (URLs) to the MySQL database?

  • Sounds more like a SQL issue. You should post the code and then we can migrate this to Stack Overflow.

  • @JohnConde thanks, but I have already asked on Stack Overflow. It isnt really a code question, more of a server environment set up or server security question. I've altered the question but am not sure how I can make it clearer than it is.

    It sounds like you need to check the mod security rules in place. There are some default rules that disallow sql injections via http which I am sure you are running into. BTW- ModSecurity is an application that hooks into Apache and behaves like a module, but is not actually an Apache module per se'. modsecurity.org
