I had the same issue today. It was a problem with
.htaccess
file of the server in my case.You can find it in the
/public_html/
folder.Rename it to
.htacces_old
, or with some other name, then try to reload a website page.If you can’t find this file – it may be because this is a hidden file. You can change it’s visiblility on CPANEL > Settings, check a box “Show hidden files (dotfiles).
One of your WordPress security plugins checks each IP against a blacklist of IPs and if there is a match then that IP is not allowed to connect.
I checked 2 of the IPs listed above and one came up:
http://www.liveipmap.com/199.21.148.44 (open proxy)
and another came up
https://www.projecthoneypot.org/ip_198.143.38.33 (spam harvester / comment spammer)
If you want to allow open proxy and comment spammers, you need to check every setting in your security plugin or find a different plugin to use).

Go to the WP Dashboard –> Settings –> Permalinks
click on default and save changes.
Then click on Postname and save changes.
I have rechecked my logs throughout the last hour and there are NO errors in the logs! Woot!
Now if Bit51 would have addressed this directly … it so would have solved a headache I really did not need today! UGH.
good luck!!
