The URI you submitted has disallowed characters.

Moved my site to effectively a new server (upgraded Ubuntu Karmic to Lucid on a seperate disk, so whilst the PHP/MySQL version should be the same, the config might well have changed)

I am now getting the "The URI you submitted has disallowed characters." with the (relative) URI "login". The full address is http://rich-desktop/baggage/login

Any ideas why this is happening, considering it worked on the same machine and network setup without issue? Mod rewrite is enabled and my htaccess is attached. Upload is borked so routes file is (usually) here

Yes, I have used the search before you all spam "RTFM"....

This is only a guess, but I wouldn't access the site by the computer name. At least enter an IP address or add a hostname/ip in hosts file

[eluser]richthegeek[/eluser]
A guess, yes, but a guess that is self-evidently incorrect.

Firstly, the setup worked on the old system, under apparently identical circumstances. Secondly, the computer name contains no illegal characters. Thirdly, the router doesn't check the domain part of the URI.

I'm having this same issue and the forums and google have turned up nothing. Fresh install of mamp 1.8.3 and codeigniter 1.7.2. I've found a couple of answers but they're all related to a php 5.3 issue, i'm running 5.2.11 I also tried installing codeigniter 1.7.1 but got the same results. the url is much the same as richthegeek: http://bhcms/content/view/1 or anything really that goes beyond just http://bhcms

any suggestions would be just fantastic.

hrm, if i edit application/config.php and change the value of $config['uri_protocol'] from "AUTO" to "REQUEST_URI" it seems to work just fine.

Same issue here. Just upgraded to Lucid Lynx and everything is broken.

Lucid uses php5.3

My guess is you're using an older version of codeigniter which is causing the problem.

Upgrade to 1.7.2 and it will work

No its not CI, its Lucid Lynx 10.04 upgrade. The upgrade has turned my life upside down. The problem is call to chmod at line 112 on Log.php which fails due to permissions. I don't know why it happened. It was working fine before upgrade. :-(

have you tried setting the permissions of your log folder?
