XF 2.1 action_available_via_post_only error

[PaulK]

I'm having problems doing a fresh install, I keep getting an Oops action_available_via_post_only error during the installation. I had no problems at all making the installation on my server before. This is a fresh install on a new database, what could be going on?

Also getting this:

I recommend downloading a new copy of the files from your customer account and uploading again.
If you have cPanel, upload the zip archive and extract it on the server.

Then delete the internal_data/install-lock.php file and navigate to the /install path and do a new installation.

See if that resolves it.

Then delete the internal_data/install-lock.php file

I'm not seeing that file anywhere. It does not exist in the internal_data folder.

Of course - because the install didn't complete

In that case just upload the files and try the install again.

I have tried that about 10 times and get no further than what I posted in the first two posts. I’m using a fresh database and download each time, I have even tried installing 2.1.5.

It has to be a server level issue then, but I'm not sure what.

 

[PaulK]

I wish I knew what the issue is so I can tell my host. I have no problem installing IPS, phpBB, WoltLab, WordPress, etc on my server.

 

[PaulK]

I have this sorted now.

 

[Paul B]

What was the issue?

What was the issue?

My host said that the PHP memory limit and execution times weren't set high enough.
