I was trying to figure out how to trigger JR to create something in the data/logs folder. I'm testing out a Nginx location block and the folder is empty.

Is there something I can do to trigger the creation of a file in this folder?

Thanks!

This is for the PHP Error and Debug Log files. you can add an fdebug() call into PHP code - i.e.
fdebug('log this');
and it will show in the data/logs/debug_log file.

Brian,

I should allow access to data/media/0/0/ right? See the sprites in there, if I prohibit direct access the folder icon images don't show up in the profile.

I'm restricting access to all other folders in data/media/. It seem to work because I can't see image via direct link to 1/1/some_image_I_uploaded_to_a_blog but can see them in the JR blog post I created.

even if access is restricted to the user directly viewing the files via a web browser, as long as the server can access those locations to deliver the file then it should be right.

Like the image functionm your image is not stored at:
https://www.jamroom.net/user/image/user_image/78/icon/crop=portrait/_v=1443910743

That url runs the 'user_image' function that goes and gets your image from wherever its stored and delivers it if appropriate.

Accessing the files directly takes away the ability to over-ride it by a module.

Right now the way I have the config file setup, the format of the image link you posted above shows up, but the direct link doesn't work.

I'm assuming that the "Vault" folder in the data/media is for selling items? It had a .htaccess file it in so I setup a location block for that folder too.

I think I have the Centmin Mod Nginx config all finished up.

Correct - the data/media/0/0 directory is a "special" directory that contains items that need to be web accessible.

Correct - you want to restrict access to the other media directories.

@brian I found a couple more .htaccess files in the jrCore/root/data/ sub-folder(s). Most are just denies which are easy adds to the conf file. But in the jrCore/root/data/media file there is an .htaccess file which contents includes:

# This file protects your media files - leave in place
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule !0/0 - [F,L]


Are folders going to be created in this folder like the root /data/media/ folder? Should I block or allow the 0/0/ folder?

Right now I set it up to block the folder 0/0 but since I haven't populated my dev site, I'm not sure exactly what is going to be created in the folder.

I can block the folder for everyone but the system:

location ~* ^/modules/jrCore/root/data/media/0/0/ {
        allow 127.0.0.1;
        deny all;
        try_files $uri $uri/ @rewrite;
}

or allow everyone into that folder and block everything else in the media folder:

location ~* ^/modules/jrCore/root/data/media/0/0/ {
        allow all;
}
location ~* ^/modules/jrCore/root/data/media/ {
        allow 127.0.0.1;
        deny all;
        try_files $uri $uri/ @rewrite;
}

The second one - you want 0/0 to be accessible.
