“Updates are currently disallowed on GET requests”- error trying to access web-application general settings in SharePoint Central Admin

Error Message:-

Updates are currently disallowed on GET requests. To allow updates on a GET, set the 'AllowUnsafeUpdates' property on SPWeb

Solution:-


Run below Powershell Script to get rid of this error:
$w = get-spwebapplication <url of your sharepoint web-application>
$w.HttpThrottleSettings
$w.Update()


This should resolve the error and General Settings page should load as expected. :)
