SharePoint Error: Updates are currently disallowed on GET requests. To allow updates on a GET, set the ‘AllowUnsafeUpdates’ property on SPWeb.
is the error that I am getting when trying to open the general settings on a newly create web application. This is an easy fix:
Open up PowerShell as and Administrator and add the sharepoint snap in. Then run the following PowerShell. For me it fixed it right away.
$web = get-spwebapplication http://SharepointUrl
$web.HttpThrottleSettings
$web.Update()Obviously change out the URL to match the offending web application. This happened to me on a brand new web application. I have no idea why it happened but the fix was there right away for me.
