Hi
i use xcloner 3.0.7 on Joomla 1.5.23 , to increase the performance and security i have just installed the Htacces joomla Master more info here : http://docs.joomla.o.....ecurity%29

then this installation i cannot access to the Xcloner-backup and Restore  Component from joomla Backend.

i receive this message:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/index.php on this server.

the other components installed are functional on the Joomla Backend there is this problem only for xcloner.

in the same situation i cannot call the url to start the backup schedulling .

i think i can bypass this proble in this point of Htaccess
" ########## Begin - Advanced server protection rules exceptions ####
##
## These are sample exceptions to the Advanced Server Protection 3.1
## rule set further down this file.
##
## Allow UddeIM CAPTCHA

## Allow Akeeba Kickstart
RewriteRule ^kickstart.php$ - [L] "

Somebody know how to insert the RewriteRule for Xcloner ..

i don't sure this is the solution ..

thanks in advance .

Anybody find this problem !?

i find the rules that give this page
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access
/administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/index.php on this
server

 

Please comment the line:

## Back-end protection
## This also blocks fingerprinting attacks browsing for XML and INI files
RewriteRule ^administrator/?$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^administrator/index\.(php|html?)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^administrator/index[23]\.php$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^administrator/(components|modules|templates|images|plugins)/([^/]+/)*([^/.]+\.)+(jp(e?g|2)?|png|gif|bmp|css|js|swf|html?|mp(eg?|[34])|avi|wav|og[gv]|xlsx?|docx?|pptx?|zip|rar|pdf|xps|txt|7z|svg|od[tsp]|flv|mov)$ - [L]
#RewriteRule ^administrator/ - [F]

other problem connect to htaccess , if i solve alone i will write a one post/guide for eveybody.

Now, after i comment the line #RewriteRule
^administrator/ – [F] 

 

into my Htaccess i can access to the Component Xcloner on the Joomla Backend but

i cannot execute cron file to start the job scheduling . I receive more or less the same error

"Forbidden

You don't have permission to access
/administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/cloner.cron.php
on this server."

 

i think that we must find one way to allow xcloner component into the htaccess to workaround the security problem .

 

thanks

I solved it allowing access to index.php and index2.php. I put these two lines just before the #RewriteRule

^administrator/ – [F]:

## Allow XClone
RewriteRule ^administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^administrator/components/com_xcloner-backupandrestore/index2\.php$ - [L]

## Deny anything else

RewriteRule ^administrator/ - [F]

 

That allows me to clone website. The only problem is that I can't exclude folders before cloning because it says it is unable to read xml file, but that is not a problem for me as I need to backup whole site.
