admin-ajax.php GET 403

Hi,

Look at LiteSpeed -> Settings -> Excludes if the ajax GET request is on a page (clear the cache after you do that).

If it is something in admin panel test to turn off the “Cache Logged-in Users” from the Cache tab.

Hi @conorseed,

Thanks for using LSCWP. We are glad you like it.

To debug you issue, please give a report number.

Also please give more info on where that 403 request is from. Is it a plugin?

Thanks,
Hai

@tishu & @hailite thanks for the replies.

I’ve tried excluding “admin-ajax.php?action=” in the Do Not Cache URIs, to no effect.

I’m unsure what a ‘report number’ is?

And the 403 request is from a custom ajax call I wrote. It works perfectly when Litespeed Cache plugin is disabled, but gives a 403 error when called with Litespeed enabled.

Thanks for your time ??

report number is from report menu under setting menu.

If you wrote it, will be easier to debug. You don’t have to give the report number then. Please check your PHP error, there should be something.

@hailite Awesome – my report number is: ADBDIYYD

There’s no php errors that I can find. I setup wp-config.php to enable debugging and logging, and no errors.

Can you find any LSCWP debug log for that 403 request?

Where would I find that on the server @hailite? ??

EDIT: Sorry that was a dumb question. Here’s the log for that specific request:

@hailite see edited reply above ??

Looks like LSCWP ran successfully without any issue. You may need to check LSWS server log to figure out which caused 403.

Will I need to contact my host to get that?

Looking around some more, it seems that on some pages the request runs perfectly, but on others it gives the 403 error. Very strange!!

Try to disable your plugin one by one, especially those security plugin. You may find which one caused the issue.

Hi, @conorseed

Are you still having a problem with this? If so, please let us know. If not, I’ll mark it resolved.

Thanks!
