unable to view own profile in moodle

I am new in moodle administration! I am using moodlem 3.2. logged in with administrator, if i open my own profile it redirects me to this page:

http://moodle_site.com/ExamOnline/user/profile.php?id=2

And it show this error message:

"Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /ExamOnline/user/profile.php on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

same error message shows if i try to uninstall any moodle plugin

I had encountered similar issue in Namecheap hosting. Tried with this

<IfModule mod_security.c>
  SecFilterEngine Off
  SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>

inside .htaccess - but no luck.

Contacted tech support team and they disabled "mod_security" Web Application Firewall of Apache to fix it.

There could be 2 possibilities:

  • profile.php file permission might not be correct or mode_security might be an issue.
  • The permission might not be enabled like user:editownprofile
