Xenforo admin 403

Hello

I have installed xenforo successfully, whoop me.

I have enabled FURL and that works public side but admin side gives me 403 now.

My conf file consists of this

Code:

server {
  server_name community.digitalwarhound.com www.community.digitalwarhound.com;

# ngx_pagespeed & ngx_pagespeed handler
#include /usr/local/nginx/conf/pagespeed.conf;
#include /usr/local/nginx/conf/pagespeedhandler.conf;
#include /usr/local/nginx/conf/pagespeedstatslog.conf;

  # limit_conn limit_per_ip 16;
  # ssi  on;

  access_log /home/nginx/domains/community.digitalwarhound.com/log/access.log combined buffer=256k flush=60m;
  error_log /home/nginx/domains/community.digitalwarhound.com/log/error.log;

  root /home/nginx/domains/community.digitalwarhound.com/public;

location / {
     index index.php index.html index.htm;
     try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$uri&$args;
}

location /admin.php {
     auth_basic "Private";
     auth_basic_user_file /usr/local/nginx/conf/htpasswd_admin_php;
        include /usr/local/nginx/conf/php.conf;
        allow 127.0.0.1;
        deny all;
}

location /install/ {
     auth_basic "Private";
     auth_basic_user_file /usr/local/nginx/conf/htpasswd_admin_php;
        include /usr/local/nginx/conf/php.conf;
        allow 127.0.0.1;
        deny all;
} 

location /internal_data/ {
     internal;
     allow 127.0.0.1;
     deny all;
}

location /library/ {
     internal;
     allow 127.0.0.1;
     deny all;
}

  include /usr/local/nginx/conf/staticfiles.conf;
  include /usr/local/nginx/conf/php.conf;
  include /usr/local/nginx/conf/drop.conf;
  #include /usr/local/nginx/conf/errorpage.conf;
  include /usr/local/nginx/conf/vts_server.conf;
}

is it something to do with this part ?

Code:

location /admin.php {
     auth_basic "Private";
     auth_basic_user_file /usr/local/nginx/conf/htpasswd_admin_php;
        include /usr/local/nginx/conf/php.conf;
        allow 127.0.0.1;
        deny all;
}

Edit

It was because of that bit of code.

I compared mine to the others in this thread Xenforo - My Xenforo Nginx vhost configuration

---

And adjusted mine accordingly.

Code:

  location ~ ^/(admin.php) {
        include /usr/local/nginx/conf/php.conf;
        allow 127.0.0.1;
        allow myipaddress;
        deny all;

google only throws out one link, and the guy is ignored. I have asked the author.

 

When i installed the forum, i did it as root, shouldn't root have these permissions ?

 

I've no idea what or why, but i can't do it.
I have manually chmod the folder, created the addons folder, put an auto-bypass file in, took it out, still nothing. I will just suffice without the auto installer.

 

This is my /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/yourdomain.com.conf

  include /usr/local/nginx/conf/drop.conf;
  #include /usr/local/nginx/conf/errorpage.conf;
  include /usr/local/nginx/conf/vts_server.conf;
}

The error log for when i tried it gave me this output

Code:

2016/12/23 21:57:23 [error] 28120#28120: *9 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP message: PHP Notice:

With the above i no longer get the error above,
I now get this

Code:

ErrorException: ftp_login(): Sorry, cleartext sessions and weak ciphers are not accepted on this server. - library/AddOnInstaller/FtpClient/FtpWrapper.php:54

Google only shows references to filezilla, which isnt what im using here. I'll ask on xenforo also

 

This is becoming more hassle than its worth, its one error after another :'(

even when trying to do it oldskool way of installing whether it be from file on server or xml upload i get this

extendThreadController is invalid (Invalid Class)

Was all this caused by uding furl ?
