I have experienced some random issues with validation error when posting new content. It is not a permission issue, as it has only happened with the admin role (all permissions granted). Disabling the module solves the problem.

I get the same thing. Any form submitted returns that error. I've found two (now three) other posts about this:

Disabling the module fixes the issue. Any more info I can provide to help nail this down?

My client (who had this problem) sometimes logged in with www and sometimes not. Could that be an issue for the Secure site module? See http://groups.drupal.org/node/14575#comment-48461

I have encountered this as well, when using Secure Site on a development site. The live site is at example.com, the development domain is dev.example.com.

Secure Site previously worked without issue. I have since changed my virtual host configuration to redirect requests from 'www.' to the plain domain name, some permissions which shouldn't affect the site, as well as possibly enabling and disabling some other modules. Not very helpful, I know...

Some symptoms that may give clues:

  • The database log seems to have a new "Session Opened" entry for every page request.
  • The value stored in my session cookie does not match the value in the database
  • I am unable to log out
  • I am unable to switch users via Devel Module

I think this is resulting in an error in the form validation, as the session key changes between requests; the session the form was created for is not the same as the session submitting it.

Running into the same issues posted by gapple: new install, just added cck/pathauto/admin_menu/securesite (all but securesite I have used extensively elsewhere). Can't log out, can't submit most forms, including disable/enable modules, adding user roles, etc. Not a problem with www->no www. as above, no changes to any underylying server settings. The core install was working fine prior to SecureSite module installation. Subscribing for followups.

Our company ran into this same issue, and discovered that Secure Site does not appear to be case sensitive, but since Drupal is we where able to log in with the wrong case via Secure Site, but would then have validation issues within Drupal. We also lost the ability to logout when this happened. We needed to quit our browser to clear this login and re-login with the correct username and password.

I would like to know if this is the same in other cases.

Changing the address to www fixed it for me.
