also, I did try to logout and back in. I tried logging out, clearing cache, and then logging in, all same issue.

I had to reboot my dedicated server because of some issues and it fixed this for me. maybe you need to see if your host can restart your server you are on, which may be hard if on a shared server...

Unfortunately it seems that the problem is not a recent. I found the post above and for me the problem was been solved:

randallkent.com/whmcs/whmcs-invalid-token-error-resolved

 

In short add the following line at the end of your configuration.php file:

 

session_name("WHMCS");

 

Try it! ;-)

I have the same problem, what was the solution ?

I am having the same issue, Sadly adding 'session_name("WHMCS");' to the configuration.php line does not fix the issue.

Looks like I just joined the club, just wish things would work. I get this error when trying to upload a file for customers to download. I have the download folder set to 777. I also added the path tot he download and that says the file does not exist even though it does.</p>

<p>

I read in another post that the security token times out. How do we extend the time for the security token. When uploading a big file it will take a while. Maybe 20 minutes.</p>

this start to happen to me when i change chmod of php session.

 

try this (solve for me):

 

chmod 1777 /var/lib/php/session

Same issue after rebuilding apache. It may have something to do with PHP. I manage some WHM boxes and adding 0 to mbstring.func_overload to allow for some Joomla installations, we started seeing this error within WHMCS when saving or editing products/services.

 

We will reset PHP later tonight and give an update.

I was getting the token error, it stopped after upgrading PHP to 5.5.30 - but I don't know why or how it solved the problem, just that the upgrade seems to have made it go away.

Hey,

I get this error, I've googled and followed suggestions such as adding 'session_name("WHMCS");' however this has not fixed it. I get the error if I try to save a setting if its been longer than around 40 seconds since I logged in.

 

Any ideas?

Hi,

Specifying a session_name value in the configuration.php file will likely make matters worse.

 

This behaviour has three potential causes:

• Your internet connection's IP address has changed since logging in (most frequently happens on mobile broadband)
  
• Your PHP configuration is not detecting your actual IP address in the HTTP_CLIENT_IP or HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR values
  
• There is a problem with the PHP session configuration
  

To work around this temporarily, once can disable Session IP Check under Setup > General Settings > Security tab.

From  Server  Terminal 
 php -i | grep session.save_path

Then Set this Value in php.ini File  & Get Fix
