Hi,

I'm having an issue when trying to add alternatives to a Multiple Choice question. I'm allowed add the initial two without any difficulty and the scoring etc. seems to be working fine. However when I try to add another option ("Add alternative") I'm presented with the following dialogue box:

An AJAx HTTP error occurred.
HTTP Result Code: 403
Debugging information follows.
Path: /myportal/?q=system/ajax
StatusText:Forbidden
ResponseText:
403 Forbidden
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /myportalryan/ on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache Server at www.mytestsite.com Port 80

I've used the Quiz module successfully before with previous projects, and can only imagine this must be either a slight hiccup with drupal 7 or the beta module. Has anyone encountered this before? Any help at all would be really appreciated.

Many thanks,

Ryan

A similar issue exists in the 6.x branch: #1784690: HTTP error 403 when adding questions to a quiz. Responses to that in the past months: None.

Works in 7.x-5.x-dev and #1784690 addressed 7.x-4.x.

I had the same problem.
But finally I have discovered that module is ok.

The problem is that the url ./system/ajax is forbidden in balancer.

so what does this mean "The problem is that the url ./system/ajax is forbidden in balancer."

All I'm getting is a white screen of death when trying to have a fourth alternative in the multiple choice. It's answers like these, which don't give anyone a direction on how to solve a problem, that make these forums next to pointless sometimes.

He means it was his load balancer's fault and not Drupal or Quiz.

Please upgrade to the 7.x-4.x or 5.x version and see #1784690: HTTP error 403 when adding questions to a quiz

Make sure the Theme Developer module or any other module which might generate an Ajax related error is turned off.
