Problem posting in private coders forum

[squidsk]

I've been trying to post a new thread in the private coders discussion forum
but it keeps failing. I'm able to respond to posts in that forum as seen by
the thread https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=299942, but new
threads keep failing. I've tried on different computers and different
browsers and the best error message I've received so far has been from
chrome:

Unable to load the webpage because the server sent no data.
Reload this webpage.
Press the reload button to resubmit the data needed to load the page.
Error code: ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

Any ideas what might be causing me to be unable to post?

Thanks,

EDIT: You can also see I can post new threads in other forums :)

Can't even see that section. Really needs open to all to at least read.

LOL then that would not make it Private. :p

I'm having a hunch its related to the content of the post as opposed to the forum since I've now tried to post it in the vb4 programming forum and get the same results. I've attached the content of the post as a text file. It isn't particularly long and as far as I can tell has nothing that should be causing any problems. I have narrowed down the problem in the post to something in the contents of the php code block in the post, but I can't determine what it might be.

Unfortunately, that only happens if you have released some mods.

I am not seeing anything in that post that isn't in tons of other posts. Have you tried posting part of it and then editing it to add the rest?

Seems like the php code don't like the bold & red markup, remove that and it should post ok.

It seems to "work" in php and certainly does in a code block which is one of the things I tried before posting here. Change the php block to code block in the post I'm trying to make and I still get the same result.

Something about this line is not liked by the forum.

chdir

I couldn't even include the whole line in this post. The forum would hang and then the page would go all no-data on me. When I tried to preview the whole post in the Coder's Forum, it wouldn't preview unless I removed the red tag, and the red tag only. I tried that here, and it wouldn't post if I included the line at all. Me thinks it's trying to execute the PHP code, or sumtin'.

Works if I remove a directory level. Wierd.

chdir('../../admincp');
