Is there someplace where I can download Toolset Modules?

I cannot get the Module Library to work as expected - when attempting to install a module I get a 403 error. My host has added the required php variable described here: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/using-toolset-module-manager/

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is no option to download the module. There is only option to install the module using module manager plugin. Your server must have all required settings there to work module manager correctly.

Do you see any other errors with server log?

Hello Minesh, here is a sample error from the server logs:

Thanks, Minesh. The answer was hiding in the .htaccess file: php execution was being blocked by a security plugin.
