Browserconfig.xml Forbidden

Hi, start by disabling all Firewall rules. If this resolves your issue, start enabling one by one the features you require and at the same time carrying out a test until you find the feature that prevents you from having access to the file you mentioned above.

Also can you check your file permissions under Filesystem Security.

Let me know how you go.

Regards

Hello mbrsolution,

Thank you for answer, i have done this already (uncheck every option i have in the plugin, and waiting 10 min for every uncheck, and clear all cache)
But this not help, only way is deactivated the plugin, im sure its about some option what is need to be unchecked but it need to wait long time to see result, but if i did this for every option then i will need 1 month, that’s why i asked you if you already know which option i should uncheck.

Thank you

Hi, I understand your issue. Can you tell me how do you access the following file Browserconfig.xml? Is via your websites admin login or elsewhere?

Hello,

I try to accessed by website admin login or elsewhere.
Here is the link: https://www.wikiasema.fi/browserconfig.xml

Hi, please check the following thread, I know it is a year old. Let me know if this helps you in any way.

The following information from Microsoft is what I found about browserconfig.xml file.

Hello mbrsolution and thank you again for replay.

This way have fix the problem, but do you think its OK or it will broke other option?

In .htaccess file section # SPECIFIC EXPLOITS
I replaced
RedirectMatch 403 config\.
with
RedirectMatch 403 (?<!browser)config\.

and in section # 5G:[REQUEST STRINGS]
replaced
RedirectMatch 403 (eval\(|\_vti\_|\(null\)|echo.*kae|config\.xml)
with
RedirectMatch 403 (eval\(|\_vti\_|\(null\)|echo.*kae|(?<!browser)config\.xml)

Hi, it looks good to me and if it works for you then don’t change it. However I will suggest that you keep an eye open just in case you are blocked from another file or URL in your site.

Another question is, have you tried enabling 6G instead of 5G? Remember only enable one option.

If the issue is resolved, can you mark this support thread as resolved.

Thank you

Hello mbrsolution,

Actually i was enabling both 6G and 5G, and now i disable 5G and using only 6G but its still need the following line to be replaced…

RedirectMatch 403 config\.
with
RedirectMatch 403 (?<!browser)config\.

Thank you for great support.

Hi morio2,

RedirectMatch 403 config\.

This rule is part of “Advanced Character String Filter”, so you have to turn off this ruleset as well (the other one is part of 5G as @mbrsolution pointed out).

I recommend using Custom Rules tab for saving your changes. Copy all rules between (but not including) #AIOWPS_ADVANCED_CHAR_STRING_FILTER_START and #AIOWPS_ADVANCED_CHAR_STRING_FILTER_END markers from your .htaccess file, paste them into Custom Rules, make your changes to the RedirectMatch 403 config\. line and save. Then, turn off “Advanced Character String Filter” and save again.

Hello chesio,

You are right, i have followed the steps you said and now everything is working fine without replacing any codes, and the reason why changes not take effect its because of (Varnish cache) was enabled on my server.

Thank you great team for support and for awesome plugin.
