Problem Description:
Everything is installed yet when I try to delete a message I keep getting this error.

An Error Has Occurred!
Invalid referring site.

This is what my error log says

Invalid referring site.

I have deleted my cookies and rebooted still does the same thing

By the way it is a fresh install. I also installed it twice. Everything else works but this.

Is there an attachment in this thread?

Not that I have found yet.....

I have 2 yabbse boards running. I just noticed it won't let me delete in the other one now when it was working before.

Maybe I need to use yabbse for 1 board and go find another for board. Might make it easier.

I don't think there is any reason to use two different boards.. all that means if you have to keep track of two different types of software.

Well something has to be happening with the cookies I figure.  I have a dedicated server so this didn't make any sense.... both boards have there very own SQL DB and they are installed in different folders. I even made sure the cookie names where different.

This has to be bug.... Board works great... until I installed board 2.... Everything on board 2 and 1 work fine except can't delete now in either....

I haven't tried it yet but I probally have to manually delete the cookies then it will most likly work.

Make sense? no?

Interesting.  Do they have different cookie names?  Are you using both forums at the same time?

I know for a fact that it isn't a bug in Yabbse because I am running my site on a server that I'm sharing with some friends.  We have, in total, about seven different yabbse boards running and we never have had the problems you describe..

...which means that this is an error somewhere that CAN be fixed.

I'm not an expert with this forum, so my advice might be total crap, but what I would do if I were you is click the "repair all boards and topics" link in the admin center to make sure nothing is screwy with that thread..

Then, since the message you are trying to delete is the first in the thread, make sure you are clicking "Remove Topic" at the bottom instead of clicking "remove" on the actual message.
I don't know if that makes a difference in a thread with only one post, but it is worth a try.

When you do certain things, it checks that you are coming from the forum... and not "hackingtools.com" for example.  This is done because if it weren't, the forum would be much easier to hack.

That said, it can cause problems when using frames or misusing cookies.

Well now it is doing it for users yet it works fine for me to post.

Here what I get from them
I'm trying to post a message, however I keep getting this error:

An Error Has Occurred!
Invalid referring site.

Still can't delete... I have tried

remove topic....
Check all chmod and all is correct

don't know what to do

Yes they have different cookie names
No I am not using both forums at the same time

I could tell you how to disable the referer check, but it's really an important security feature.
