Which search form exactly? The one in the top right of trac.macports.org <http://trac.macports.org/>, or a different one? > Forbidden > > You don't have permission to access this resource. > > Apache/2.4.59 (Debian) Server at trac.macports.org Port 443 > > No matter whether being logged in into the site or not. > > Anyone knowing the reason behind it? Due to spam abuse and DoS attacks by AI crawler bots I had to very aggressively block various requests and user agents. I tried to make sure normal search still works though. Can you help me diagnose the issue with a bit more information? - What’s your browser, in which version? Ideally, if you know, what’s your browser’s user-agent string? - What was the search term you used? - When did this occur exactly? A date and time with seconds would help. Thanks, Clemens
