I think it's actually the mkdir that's the problem. My host (textdrive) uses mod_security. If you're hosting via Appache you can set up particular rules to be ignored via the .htaccess file. However, if you're passing through requests to lighttpd you can't switch it off at a rule level.
Textdrive will allow you to disable it altogether, but I haven't done that just yet, as I'm assuming it might be useful, if it doesn't get in the way too much. I've got round this particular problem by just using English instead of code "Create a directory called radiant", and assuming the punter is bright enough to work it out!

Another way around it might be to replace some of your string with entity declarations, ie. mkdir radiant If you're really lucky, you might be able to get away with just replacing the space (mkdir radiant) which wont destroy the readability so much. _______________________________________________ Radiant mailing list [email protected] http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant -- No virus found in this incoming message.
