Sometime (but not ALL the time) when I update an existing BBCode via APC --> Posting, say updating its 'HTML replacement' code, the update gets rejected with a "403 Forbidden" server error (an error from hosting company I believe)
My question is, when such a BBCode is updated, is it an update to some database table record(s) ONLY? Or does it also update some file say under (phpbb_root)/whatever directory (if yes, what files under which direcotry)? I guess I am trying to find out if some file directory and/or files do not have correct access mode say 755?

BBcodes are all in the database.
Thanks. I did contact my webhosting company about this issue. I was told to offer my board admin user name and password so that some technical support person could try the same, and monitor what is blocked, etc. I was not feeling easy though to give out my password...
webhosting guy tried adjusting mod_security settings a number of times, but still gets the same error. so now I am asking the guy to disable mod_security altogether for my domain. I will see...
