Hi all,
I have a student who has a problem when uploading a particular PowerPoint to a particular assignment. Other students can upload to it fine, and he can upload other PowerPoints to it, but ont the one he wants there.

It seems to be ModSecurity which is giving a 400 error. The log says
[Thu Dec 13 14:51:00 2007] [error] [client 10.0.2.86]...
ModSecurity: Access denied with code 400 (phase 2)...
Match of "eq 0" against "REQBODY_PROCESSOR_ERROR" required...
[id "960912"] [msg "Invalid request body"] [severity "CRITICAL"]...
[hostname "linuxweb1.garibaldi.notts.sch.uk"]...
[uri "/moodle/mod/assignment/upload.php"]...
[unique_id "EqyBlwoAABkAAGDziWMAAAAR"]
We have tried renaming the file, but that won't upload either.

Any help would be appreciated
TIA
Richard
