A problem in the exam submition

Hello developers, I'm currently learning PHP in the "PHP for Beginners" course. When I click the "Take Test" button below the video, I'm taken to another page. When I click "Submit Answer," I get a 403 (Forbidden) error page. When I click the "Return to Homepage" button, I'm taken back to the homepage, but the sidebar isn't working, and I have to refresh the page. Honestly, I don't know if the problem is with my device or the website, but it's the first time I've encountered this.

And please could any one tell me where is the homework?

Thank You.

Update: Now my profile page has a server error 500.

Can you try it for me one more time. A few hours ago, we pushed a fairly large database update. I think you might have run into an error while the updates were running. Your profile page is currently loading properly.

Yes, my profile page has been fixed, thank you, but I'm still having trouble submitting the exam. For example, the submit button points to this link "https://laracasts.com/exams/10/questions/1/answer", but when I click on this link, I get a 403 error message.

I ran into the same problem. I filled in all the questions for the first exam but the button always submits the page and returns a 403 error

Thanks, everybody. The issue is that the exams feature requires an active subscription - but one of the pages didn't have the proper authorization. That's why you received a 403 when submitting.

Sorry for the confusion! All patched up now.
