Not sure if this is the right forum, but I'll give it a go.

Google, and VB support have been zero help at all. I'm using version 3.8.0 Beta 4, upon EVERY login for everyone, using any browser on any OS, This comes up:

Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.

I've done everything everyone has said, optimize the database, all the maintainence stuff, remove all of the addons/products, everything. I have no clue what's causing this!

Well looks like the issue is with the database, I removed every product, addon and also re-uploaded the vbulletin content. I have no idea how to fix this but it's annoying, no one can even get to usercp...

If you copy your error message and wrap it in quotes and then search there are a lot of results. Those are using the first line of the error message only.

I looked through a couple and followed the trail and found this from the vBulletin.com site. It's for an older version of vB, but it might work.

Looks like there are plenty of threads about this at various vB support forums.

Thing is, I tried everything that Google results said to try, and nothing. I'm not a database person and I know this is a database issue. I just want to keep all of the posts and users, and basically restore this to how it should be without this annoying error.

I'm not sure why you're convinced this is a database issue. I'm not an expert on this, but I wouldn't think a database error would result in the security token error message. None of the pages I looked at offering a solution mention the database.

Here's another possible solution I found searching.

What's your forum URL?

When exactly did problems start to occur? As soon as you upgraded to 3.8.0?

Also, do you know what changes you made to the forum at that time?

Forum URL is http://community.sixthdemension.com

I don't know the exact time it came up, I do believe this has something to do with addons. But the thing is, like I said I re-uploaded all of the vbulletin content. So it's obviously something with the sql database.

Well if the error comes up only upon login, perhaps the error is in your login.php file. Perhaps we could take a look at that?

It's saying it won't let me post them, too many characters. I saved both scripts in a text file located at: www.sixthdemension.com/login.txt and www.sixthdemension.com/usercp.txt

Still having the problem. Can anyone help?

Have you tried any of the solutions I linked to above. I know you're convinced this a database issue, but it really doesn't sound like it is. The issue is likely in login.php. If you reupload a file that wasn't working because of an issue with the code that file is still going to cause problmes. It doesn't mean the issue is now a database one.

It's not a database issue. It's a theme issue.

If you have a valid license ask on the vBulletin forums or open a support ticket with them. They will help if you have a legal vBulletin license.

I'm uploading all of the default files, it happens with any theme, even the default one. I basically defaulted everything with the exception of the database, that's why I'm convinced it's the database.

Edit: It's also not the theme, since the theme is just an XML file, and some images.

The only way that error would occur is a security token problem from a form... which is the theme. (Meaning the HTML)

From the looks of it you're using a NULLED version of vBulletin. If you want support for the script then you should buy it.

Have you tried removing the images then? It seems like this error can occur on very large uploads to the DB.

Also, are you still getting the errors upon login? I looked over at your forum and saw some people posting in the last few hours / days. That means some people must be logging in without problems.

Yeah you can login and post, but upon login you have to remove the appended text after the .com/ and it works. Usercp will not work whatsoever though.

Which images do you mean?

athomas are you using a valid copy of vBulletin? Did you purchase a license for it? If not why should you expect things to work?

I love how you accuse me of piracy... Funny.

Anyhow, it was a template problem. Reverting all the templates seems to have fixed it, plus I accidentally removed the default one.

It wasn't meant as an accusation. I noticed it above and wanted to ask.
