Hi.

I've read your opinion of Extrawatch on the forum. Unfortunately I've already bought it and would like it to work along with Admintools (which I consider indespensible). Checked with the developers and they were unable to help.

Issue:
Valid users were being blocked by AdminTools after I installed Extrawatch component. All blocks are for DFIShield and the target url logged has this format:

http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/?option=com_ajax&module=extrawatch_agent&format=raw&origin=frontend&ewToken=f02d6a136084cc73ba8d72adf5df8b4ef7602193&task=ajax&action=heatmap.include.js&env=ExtraWatchJoomlaEnv&id=0&extraWatchHeatmap=&extraWatchDay=¶ms=get

I added an exception in WAF Exceptions (saw this solution in a post on this forum; not working for me):
Component: com_ajax
View: (All)
Query Parameter: action


I tested by using an incorrect admin url and the Exceptions Log showed two entries: one correct "Admin Query String" entry and another as follows (DFIShield):

http://MYDOMAIN.com/?option=com_ajax&module=extrawatch_agent&format=raw&origin=frontend&ewToken=f02d6a136084cc73ba8d72adf5df8b4ef7602193&task=ajax&action=heatmap.include.js&env=ExtraWatchJoomlaEnv&id=0&extraWatchHeatmap=&extraWatchDay=¶ms=getPara

I'm doing something wrong. What do I specify in WAF Exceptions to stop this from showing? Any solution to this?


Thanks in advance.

Hello,

could you please try to remove the query parameter and try again?

Thanks! That seems to work. Only one entry (correct one by Admintools) shows.

I will monitor this over the next few days.
