Recently my joomla website is hacked. After that I tried to find out the Root Cause for the Hack , found a Module installed in my hacked joomla website whih is not installed by me. My website have few Users with Administrator UAC.
I want to find out who (which Joomla User) installed the module and Date & Time of the installed Module.
I have Deleted the all files while restoring the website. So i can't find out the time installed Infected module.
I tried to find out in the Administrator (Admin Panel) & Database regarding this but i can't find any. Is there any other way to find the Date/Time & User of the installed module.
I'm Using Joomla 2.5
If you have access to the Apache logs, then you can do that by just checking the logs. Just do a grep on com_install and see which IP performed the install, and then do a grep on the IP to know which user logged in as that IP.
Hope that helps!

This might be a silly question, but I'm new to web-dev, so here it is:
I recently installed MAMP on my windows system [yes, MAMP works on windows too] and it shows Apache and MySQL server to be active, but neither I have installed any of these servers, nor I can find them in "Services" of my system.
So I wanted to ask whether I'll need to explicitly install both of these servers or not.
Also, If there's no need of explicit installation, how does MAMP work ? like, giving access to both these servers without actually installing them ? [A brief explanation would be enough]
T.I.A.
They come with MAMP. You can access phpMyAdmin under the Tools menu in the page that automatically opens up when you start MAMP, for me it is http://localhost/MAMP/?language=English
I just found out that someone has installed "MA2 Slideshow free"on my magento site. I have never heard of it before and it is not me who installed it.
I am not able to install the security patches right now because I do not have SSH access to my web host.
Do you think my site got hacked? How can I remove the installed "MA2 Slideshow free" from the admin panel?
Did you install any custom Magento templates? These usually come packed with different extensions. When you install a template, you might even not notice, that additional modules get installed. You should start there.
Finally after much research when I couldn't get anything, I'm posting here. I'm trying to install magento on wamp server version 2.1. I extracted the Magento CE 1.7.0 to 'magento' folder in c:\wamp\www. I checked the dependencies and they are all compliant. When I try to access magento through
http://localhost/magento/, the url changes to
http://www.localhost.com/magento/ and I get a Connection was reset error.
What am I missing? If any other information is needed, please let me know.
Please check out your error logs (probably in C:\wamp\logs).
Magento itself should not run on windows (it's possible, but requires a lot of work to get all the PHP modules running).
I would suggest you to install it on a linux/unix server with an Apache installed from the packet manager (no preconfigured packages like LAMP, XAMPP, etc...).
If you don't have access to a linux box and don't have a server try a VM (like VirtualBox).
Trust me, running Magento on linux will be way easier then on windows ;-)
Good evening everyone, I been workin' on Ubuntu server, and I work from a remote pc that uses Windows XP Pro and ubuntu 9.10 too...ok the thing is...I installed joomla 1.5 last version on the ubuntu server from my pc and everything was good until I had to fill the ftp information, never found the connection path so I installed without it...now I have my joomla but I want to install some extensions and here's the problem, with the FTP Filezilla runin' on windows I connect perfectly with the server as with SSH in Ubuntu, but when I try to fill the FTP information on joomla, it doesnt recognizes the path, any idea about it?...
If it's 1.5, you really don't need the FTP in the Joomla configuration set.
Try this: disable FTP in Joomla. (Global Configuration / Server)
Then try to install a component / module / plugin / whatever.
It's a bit counterintuitive, but will most likely work - or at least it does in my experience. Joomla's file system can manage files for you... it's that whole content management system thing.
If you're dead set on enabling FTP, then check the Global Configuration, and see what the :Path to Temp-folder: is set to. In 1and1's case, it'll be something like:
/homepages/26/d264424517/htdocs/english/tmp
Strip the 'tmp' and you'll see where '/english' would be the root path for the FTP setting, but again you most likely don't need it.
Please read the FTP Layer hints on the Joomla! forum. The info here had helped me resolved similar problems in the past.
I am trying to install Moodle 1.9 using XAMPP on a virtual machine running Windows Server 2008 Enterprise edition.
I can initially access the install.php installer script fine but after I progress past the third page the webpage times out.
If I go to http://localhost/, no webpage is downloaded and the browser just times out.
I have tried to run the install script with IE7 and Chrome to see if it was a browser problem, but the same thing occurs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ashley
Windows servers are notorious for causing problems with Moodle installations. Here's a few things to try:
Check the dirroot is set correctly your config.php file. Windows requires complete, absolute file names.
Has the failed install created some/all database tables, and populated them? If only some, look for the last successful table, then check for any corrupted or modified code related to that table that could be causing the install to hang. E.g. is the last successful table is forum, check your mods/forum files. It might be worth downloading a fresh weekly build of Moodle.
Your mysql memory_limit might be set too low (Moodle Docs recommend at least 40mb for Moodle 1.8 and higher).
Is this an upgrade, or a clean install? If it's an upgrade, don't try jumping too many versions, and (if possible) uninstall any third-party modules or activities that might cause trouble whilst updating the tables.
There's lots more info in the Moodle Docs, particularly:
