 I was in the middle of editing a form using a product called RSFormPRo. I left the browser open and came back, evidently after the timeout. When I tried leaving the page to go to another admin page, I was blacklisted by the WAF settings.

I had to go into the system under /plugins/system/admintools/admintools and rename pro.php to pro.php.bak to get back into the system.

I then went into the AdminTools to remove my IP address and go the "Your Admin Tools installation is corrupt" ... I proceeded to remove my IP address and then went back to the file system and restored the pro.php file's name.

I am still getting the ...corrupt message.

I reinstalled the product from the zip archive, twice, and still getting the message.

Each time I do a file check and nothing is shown but this...

Below you can find the lists of files and folders which are missing or have been tampered with.

I have now uninstalled and reinstalled AdminTools, with the same results above.
But nothing is listed

The message was shown because you renamed the pro.php file. Why it got stuck is a mystery, but I have a suspicion of my own. Please try clearing your browser's cache and cookies. This will kick you out of your site. Now log back in. Did the message go away?

I tried a different browser. Developing in Firefox, I have cache disabled, but fear it may have been a cookie/session issue because it kept it up until this morning. Maybe something on the server side? But the remedy, I guess is to be patient and wait it out!

It could be a server side cache, but I doubt it (we are asking Joomla! not to cache our pages). Hm, if the message has gone away now I guess we can close the ticket?
