Can't Update pages or posts in WordPress

Hi,
I am reaching out for assistance.
I have a client site where I cannot update the pages or posts.
I keep getting the error message, updating failed.
I have deactivated and activated the plugins.
Thanks
Patricia
Hi there,
So you've tried disabling all plugins and it didn't help?
If so can you try switching to a twenty series WP theme?
If the error still exists, try checking with your host.
Let me know :)
I tried switching to a wp theme and still the same issue.
Then I think it's something related to your server.
Try checking with your host :)
I wanted to post a followup here:
This was not a GeneratePress issue.
I had someone test the site on a different server and everything worked fine after changing the permalink setting to "Plain."
Yesterday, I tried to edit a post or page by adding in an image; I got the same result "Updating Failed." I could add in text but not images.
This morning, I ran the Site Health Checker in the Dashboard and there were other errors in the firewall regarding ip address. I fixed this.
Right now, I can now update the posts & pages, as well as add new content.
Awesome.
Glad you've figured out!
