404 Errors On Revive Adserver Admin Panel

[freyabigg]

Hey guys! 

I'm pretty new to advertising networks, and have only just installed Revive Adserver today onto my website. Took a bit of work to get our databases working properly, but finally got it installed. However, when I click certain things in the admin panel, it redirects me to a 404 on our website. So far it's done this when I click 'Add new banner' for a campaign, 'Targeting Channels', 'Add new zone' and a few others. Naturally, some of the most integral options.

 

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

 

Thanks

You shouldn't get any 404's with a standard Revive installation, (presumably you're using the latest version?)

 

Some other things to check: do your www/admin/* paths exist on your server? Is your web server is intercepting your requests in an unexpected manner? Is your configuration file up-to-date and all of your configuration paths correct?

The webserver error logs might offer some hints. Maybe a permissions issue?

Thanks for the feedback! Both the www/admin path and the error logs seem to be in the clear, so I'm still not sure what's causing it. I'm using the latest version, and I assume the config files are up-to-date as it was just installed. I may be wrong though, I'm not too great at technical things, however I did get our tech guy to do the initial installation, so I'm going to assume he did it right. I tried reinstalling via Softaculous, still same issues.

Possibly one of the myriad of PHP security mods that get in the way of Revive Adserver working?

Here I am having same problem while trying to add generic html banner saying like this - "403 Forbidden. A potentially unsafe operation has been detected in your request to this site."

@Bikas Gurung just disable mod_security.

I disabled it but still having problem. What is actual permission for <dictionary>/www/admin/banner-edit.php ?

A 403 Forbidden is not the same thing as a 404 Not Found.

What to do now ? I want to use generic html banner but it do not allow me do so.

if the error is 403, start a new topic, and be prepared to give a lot more detail.
