@macmanx, it wasn’t a section, that was all that was in the htaccess file ??

Anyway, I’m going to mark this closed and resolved. Thanks again James.

@macmanx I have two WordPress sites on the same server. One works and the other doesn’t. And no, I don’t have modsecurity.

That all said, I think I’ve solved my problem. It looks like it was security related and that Wordfence made changes to htaccess
# Wordfence WAF
<IfModule LiteSpeed>
php_value auto_prepend_file ‘/home/orgchang/timpaul.com/wordfence-waf.php’
</IfModule>
<Files “.user.ini”>
<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
Require all denied
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</IfModule>
</Files>

# END Wordfence WAF

# BEGIN WordPress

# END WordPress

I’ve now rebuilt htaccess
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

I can create posts and pages. I should mention, I still have the classic editor plugin enabled.

James, thanks for your help ??

Hello @macmanx (James),

As I noted in my original post:
I receive the error ‘Publishing failed’ when *all* plugins are disabled
I have installed the Classic Editor plugin and still get the error

I am not aware of anything else that would interfere with the REST API. I note also in the original post that Health Check displayed a REST API respons i.e. 404 so I assume the api is working???

Thanks for responding to my post

Cheers

David, unfortunately I am still getting the same errors.

I’m thinking that I need to remove the plugin, your thoughts?

Thank you.

Ok, I’ve done that Dave. Will wait and see if I get more PHP errors

Thanks for your help

PS, just for your info, VaultPress deactivated PHPMyAdmin because “Unsanitized PHP global variables are being used to include or require other files.”

Thank you Dave, that was a very helpful tip.

Now, I have not run the delete query yet as on my read you are saying delete everything? so
DELETE * FROM wp_wfhits;

Or is there something more specific to delete?

Thanks for the note, friend. Your suggestion, though, is beyond my skill set

I haven’t heard back so have removed this plugin from my site. You can close this request if you like.

Hello @donncha, just a quick note to confirm that WP Super Cache 1.5.9 is still offline as it breaks my site when I switch the cache on.

When I switch WPSuper Cache on my site looks like this.

As requested, I have debug running. I am now waiting on instructions for providing the debug data.

Thanks.

Stand by:

The site broke again. Disabling CDN did not help. Disabling cache (switching cache to off) resolved the site issue.

I’ve generated a super cache log file but no errors in PHP log file. Should I upload the super cache log file?

Cheers

Thanks for the note @donncha. I have enabled debug logging, enabled the cache (which broke the site again), and inspected the log. I can’t see anything that might be helpful in the log. I’ve started PHP logging too but, as it now happens, the site won’t break.

When I could break the site consistently, I did notice the disabling CDN and enabling the cache meant the site didn’t break.

My site is now working with CDN enabled. Can’t explain why ..

Cheers

Thanks for the very quick response, much appreciated. I understand the situation. I will use a carriage return break the long line into two but keeping the sentence in the one text box.

Thanks for the great plugin!

Take care

Ciao
