I saw this thread: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1663325#post1663325 but I didn't want to hijack as while the symptoms seem similar I think they may be different causes. Mod's please merge or delete if applicable.

The owner of a board that I admin is having this error message come up randomly.

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.


I believe this is primarily when he edit's threads but he has received it while uploading photo's to his gallery as well. He has also received it once that I know of when replying to a thread. We're using v. 3.7.4. This has been happening for awhile but what version it started at I don't know.

To my knowledge he is the only one receiving this and he is on a Sat. connection. The one thing in common between all instances that I've been able to ascertain is that he has opened a form and then gets the error when submitting it. Could this be caused by an IP change between the time he opens a form and then clicks submit, upload, or save? He is using FF 3.03 on a MAC OS 10+ but I don't know what version specifically.

TIA for an assistance!

no, security token is missing

you have to check the form that he is using - most likely the hidden "security token" text field is missing

Thank you for the reply.

Next time this happens to him I'll have him email me the source of the form. Thanks for the help.
