Ajax request returning 403 error - codeigniter

I am running a site on my VirtualBox Ubuntu. Trying to make an Ajax request I get a 403 error. Now I know Linux is rather weird with permissions. My Linux adept friend tried and failed to help me over about an hour. Code is below. Let me know if more information is needed.
JS:
function emailValidation (email) {
$.post('../../application/controller/account/emailValidation',
{'email':email}
);
}
PHP:
function emailValidation ($email) {
$this->load->helper('email');
if (valid_email('$email')) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
ERROR: "You don't have permission to access /application/controller/account/emailValidation on this server."

The path in my Ajax was incorrect. It needed to be /account/emailValidation. It's a noob mistake. Thanks for helping though.

Laravel Sanctum Vue.js - How to check if session is expired

I'm starting up a learning project with Laravel, VueJS. I'm using Sanctum cookie based.
I have got the authentication working with the help of several tutorials, but none of the tutorials covers the piece of checking if your session is expired or not. The tutorials that where covering it where using LocalStorage, and what I red about is that you should avoid LocalStorage.
I'm looking for a simple possibility to check if a user is still authenticated and if not, then redirect them to the login page, or even better, show a modal to login and go further where they are.
22 jan 2021 Still haven't got he answer :(
I'm fairly new to VueJS, Vuex and so on :)
Thanks for the help !
Try this, its what I've been using so far. Its not very ideal but works out fine so far until I can make it better.
Put this in App.vue created method
// each call needs csrf token to work, so we call this on app load once.
axios.get(axios.rootURL + '/sanctum/csrf-cookie').catch(() => {
alert('Something went wrong, Contact admin <br> ErrorCode: csrf')
})
// this part is not necessary, you may adapt as required
// let isLoggedIn = localStorage.getItem('isLoggedIn') ? true : false
// this.setIsLoggedIn(isLoggedIn)
axios.interceptors.request.use(
config => {
return config
},
error => {
return Promise.reject(error)
}
)
// this is the actual part you need, here we check on each call
// if we get error 401 which is unauthenticated we redirect to login. That's it
axios.interceptors.response.use(
response => {
return response
},
error => {
if (error.response.status === 401) {
this.$router.push({ name: 'login' })
localStorage.removeItem('isLoggedIn')
this.setIsLoggedIn(false)
}
return Promise.reject(error)
}
)

How to detect response in VueJS?

I ask the help of knowledgeable people
im create a RESTfull API project on Vue.js (Vuex also)
And im get small problem
The server to which I am sending the request is down why how idn
Can someone tell me how can im detect this message from response
This response dont have any massege, error, status, statusText, text, preview and response
All this field is empty
If someone have expirience about this or some info I will be very grateful for that
You can do something like this to handle these cases:
submitRequest() {
axios.post('/api/test', this.testData)
.then(response => {
// handle success
})
.catch(function(error) {
// handle error
if (error.response) {
// The request was made and the server responded with a status code
} else if (error.request) {
// YOU CAN HANDLE IT HERE
// The request was made but no response was received
// `error.request` is an instance of XMLHttpRequest in the browser
console.log(error.request);
} else {
// Something happened in setting up the request that triggered an Error
}
});
}

How to get more error information from an Angular http ajax call

I have been trying to diagnose a http problem for what seems forever now.
I thought I would go back to a very simple sample Ionic (Angular) application I can use to test, where I have the following test code...
public onClick() : void {
this.http.get(this.url).subscribe(res => {
this.result = res.statusText;
console.log(res);
}, error => {
this.result = `failed ${error.statusText}`;
console.log(error);
});
}
The url just comes from an input.
If I force an error, (eg put an incorrect url), I notice the error from the observable always has a status os 0, and no statusText. In the browser network tab, I see the 404 as expected...
identityx 404 xhr polyfills.js:3 160 B 10 ms
Is there a way to get better error information back from the http call, rather than just 0 all the time (and no status text)? I've look through the error object, but can't see anything.
Thanks in advance!

User Sessions Parse.com Cloud Code Hosting

My login form currently posts to itself on /
The post request is then picked up as follows...
app.post('/', userController.doLogin);
Then the controller is a follows..
exports.doLogin= function(req, res) {
Parse.User.logIn(req.body.username, req.body.password, {
success: function(user) {
console.log('login success');
res.render('loginSuccess');
},
error: function(user, error) {
console.log('login failed');
res.render('loginFailed');
}
});
}
This works correctly for a correct / incorrect login.
However, once logged in, the session is not stored no cookies are created / local storage etc..
Therefore when I test for login on one of my other routes it always displays as no-session, i am checking with the following code..
if(Parse.User.current()){
console.log('logged in and redirected');
res.redirect('/member/home');
}else{
console.log('not logged in, redirected to home/login page');
res.redirect('/');
}
Which always goes too home / again.
I read here https://parse.com/docs/hosting_guide#webapp-users that...
You just need to call Parse.User.logIn() in Cloud Code, and this middleware will automatically manage the user session for you.
Which would suggest it does the session for me?
Any help would be super useful! many thanks in advance!
Ok so after a lot of digging I have worked it out. First you need to add the module by doing the following..
var parseExpressCookieSession = require('parse-express-cookie-session');
Second you need to setup your own variables like this
app.use(express.cookieParser('YOUR_SIGNING_SECRET'));
app.use(parseExpressCookieSession({ cookie: { maxAge: 3600000 } }));
Third, you must do send the login/session all over HTTPS.
Boom, working - easy peasy when you know how.

JQuery $.post() doesn't work

Can any one help me with the following code:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#add_user").submit(function() {
$.post( "../php/register_sql_ins.php",
{r_fname: $("#fname").val(),
r_lname: $("#lname").val(),
r_uname: $("#uname").val(),
r_pass: $("#pass").val(),
r_authLevel: $("#authLevel").val(),
r_email: $("#email").val(),
r_company: $("#company").val(),
r_phone: $("#phone").val(),
r_address: $("#add").val()}, function(result) {
alert(result);
}
);
return false;
});
});
This should store my user data in a sql table. the php part of code(register_sql_ins.php) works fine. but this query piece of code just doesn't work!! and I have no idea what is the problem!
With Firebug it returns false every time!
By the way sorry for bad english. It's not my mother tong!
There are two places where I would look for the cause of such error:
Network tab in Firebug. Check what is sent to the server and what is the response. If data sent is correct and server replies with status 200, then you have to debug your PHP script, else
Server logs. If the request failed to complete succesfully, log will contain the reason.
