Solid Security can’t setup

Hi @lukasmainka, thanks for reaching out! I see you’re having issues installing Solid Security on your site.

Does it help if you deactivate the plugin and re-activate it?

If not, I’d suggest verifying that all the REST HTTP methods the plugin needs are allowed on your server: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, and OPTIONS.

Once confirmed, resave your WP Permalinks settings. If you’re on an Apache server, double-check that?mod_rewrite?is supported.?If you’re using NGINX server, make sure the appropriate rewrite rule for permalinks is added (check this guide).

Try also to clear all sorts of cache, preferably in this manner: server cache -> CDN cache (if you use it) -> plugin cache -> browser cache.

Then, re-install a freshly downloaded copy of Solid Security Basic to see if it works this time.

Hope this helps, and let us know how it goes.

Reactivating doesn’t work. Tried that a few times. mod_rewrite seems to work because I get pretty URLs.

REST HTTP works for all REST-Routes but for solid security. I got an error in the console when I try to config solid security in the dashboard. When I try to get to the endpoint I get:

// https://ptk-hessen.de/wp-json/ithemes-security/rpc/global/detect-ip/?_locale=user

{
  "code": "rest_no_route",
  "message": "Es wurde keine Route gefunden, die mit der URL und der Request-Methode identisch ist.",
  "data": {
    "status": 404
  }
}

There’s no route for Plugin Root https://ptk-hessen.de/wp-json/ithemes-security/.
This is a really unusual behaviour

Hi @lukasmainka,

The SolSec plugin adds 2 namespaces to the REST API:

• ithemes-security/rpc (https://ptk-hessen.de/wp-json/ithemes-security/rpc)
• ithemes-security/v1 (https://ptk-hessen.de/wp-json/ithemes-security/v1)

Additionally I can confirm that a POST request to:

https://ptk-hessen.de/wp-json/ithemes-security/rpc/global/detect-ip/?_locale=user

results in a 404. When accessing the same route in my test env I get:

{    

“code”: “rest_missing_callback_param”,

    “message”: “Missing parameter(s): proxy”,

    “data”: {

        “status”: 400,

        “params”: [

            “proxy”

        ]

    }

}

So it seems something in your env is not allowing the POST request. You may need to contact your hosting provider to fix this.

Hi @lukasmainka, I hope the reply from @nlpro helped resolve the issue with the Solid Security setup on your site.

To add, please make sure that your server?allows all the REST HTTP methods: GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, and OPTIONS.

Due to inactivity, I’ll be marking this post resolved. If you still require further assistance, feel free to open a new support topic, and we’d be happy to assist.
