If you can't climb a wall:
Are you jumping at it? You can't climb walls when you're touching the ground, this was done because it was too easy to climb walls accidentally.
Are you moving into it? remember, this works exactly like ladders.
Is climmbing disabled for you via commands? If it is, you can't climb!
