Joomla2.5.28 You are not permitted to use that link to directly access that page (#418) error, can't access or edit the articles - permissions

Hope someone might help me here.
Been struggling for weeks now how to recover access to my joomla site. Every attempt to edit article or menu this error appears - "You are not permitted to use that link to directly access that page (#418)."
I have two sites - joomla and wordpress runs in one hosting. The error started to appear when I upgraded my wordpress and PHP version. I forgot to consider if that would affect my joomla site. How to resolve or undo it?
I did checking in the database tables in my joomla admin page still it didn't resolve my problem.
Thanks.

Orange HRM is not getting Logged

I have installed OrangeHRM 3.1.2 in live server and accessing through a domain name.
Issue I am facing is - When I am trying to loggin to the following link "http://example.com/hrm/symfony/web/index.php/auth/login" - With valid credentials. I was not logged in or neither I am not displayed with any exceptional Message, but I was able to see the URL as follows - "http://example.com/hrm/symfony/web/index.php/pim/viewMyDetails" which means I have logged in but the screen have not changed and I am still seeing the Login screen.
The Orange HRM is hosted in Godaddy Linux hosting.
I am using Windows 7.
I have checked this scenario in cross browser as well.
When I tried after few or many mins, I was able to login without any issues. As I am facing this issues frequently. I am unable to track My Staffs login and logout time exactly.
As I am not a developer, I am not sure what was the issue. Can someone please help me solving the same and just let me know if you need any more information.
Appreciate your valuable response.
Thanks,
Karthi
Please check your php session save path. Make sure it is writable by the webserver you are running , either apache or nginx or php-fpm. I had the same issue and i was able to solve giving proper permissions to the session save path directory.

"Cannot locate WordPress root directory," error while updating WordPress or installing any plugins

I am running WordPress on a CentOS server with Apache and Mysql and it was running smoothly a couple of days ago but when I am trying to install any plugin or update WordPress, it gives the error with the exact statement "Unable to locate WordPress root directory".
Any suggestions are welcome because I need to install a few plugins.
This error can be caused by the wrong FTP username being given (not an incorrect password – that would be trapped nicely by wordpress – but the username).
I guess this isn’t something that is going to happen often – moving a server and so changing the FTP username – but I’m glad I thought to read around before spending hours diagnosing the server.
This could be because of the web host you are using. If you are hosting it on a free web host it could be somewhat unstable. If you really want to test wordpress out to see how it would word if it did word correctly, try using WAMP.

Wordpress posts showing in SQL database but not in Dashboard

I transfered my site and I have a problem:
I cannot see any Worpdress posts that I had, and when I go inside my phpMyAdmin they are there, in wp-posts table.
All of the URLs are correct and the rest of the URL paths and everything is fine.
Does anyone have an idea how to restore that posts from SQL?
Did you change the database connection credentials in wp-config.php? If you transferred to another host, you would most likely need to change these credentials.
I was having a similar problem, and solved it by using the export/import tools included in WP (tools > export from old site; tools > import > install WPimporter > import on new site)
Old issue, but just happened to me. Between dev and production.
Production had a lot of content updates, but dev had latest code, so i imported only the posts and postmeta along with taxonomy etc. The posts did not appear in wp-admin and would return 404 if accessed in frontend.
The solution was to iterate through all posts and call wp_update_post(array('ID'=>$postID)) and it worked.

MediaWiki: 500 Internal Server Error after authenticating

I've been trying to research this for hours now, and I can't find any related articles.
I have an installation of MediaWiki that is under SSL and uses an extension of the AuthPlugin to authenticate users to an external database upon their login.
If I access the wiki without being logged in, I can see the content that anonymous users would see just fine. If, however, I log into the site, the wiki is no longer available, and only brings up a 500 Internal Server Error.
I've checked the error logs, and nothing shows up there corresponding to the bad request.
On a staging server, I have the same codebase running under non-SSL, and I do not encounter any issues when logged in, so I'm thinking there might be something to do with tthe combination of SSL and the AuthPlugin.
Anyone out there encounter similar using extensions of AuthPlugin under SSL?
Thanks!
Start by turning on PHP debugging and logging, so you can actually see the error instead of having to guess what the 500 means:

I ran into this same issue for one wiki user after an upgrade. All other wiki users could still log in. My issue was due to the user using a skin that did not work. After changing the user's skin to Vector(default) he could log in again. I couldn't figure out how to change another user's preferences as an Admin, so I ended up running an update statement to the mysql database. Hope this helps someone else.

WebsitePanel can't find IIS_IUSRS Group

I've been trying to figure out why I can't add a website record to my domain on WebsitePanel.
The server is running `Win Server '08 R2 with IIS7.5
EDIT 1: Having tried going over this since before the OP date, I've downloaded the source for WebsitePanel and I've determined that the group that it can't find is in fact IIS_IUSRS.
Anyone got any idea why a web application wouldn't be able to find this group?
EDIT 2: After going through the code some more I've discovered that the web app (WebsitePanel) uses WMI to get a list of the user groups from the server. Thinking the issue could be caused by permission restrictions, I gave the web app full access to WMI which didn't improve anything.
This server is meant to host customer websites as well as my own (I deleted the website from IIS thinking there could've been a problem with the site already existing) so a speedy resolution to this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time.

In the WebsitePanels Web Server configuration, you can specify the group name that it'll use when creating websites.
Once I'd found this, I created the group that it was set to use and successfully added the website.
