[Tutorial] How to deny access for files with certain extension or folder in OpenLiteSpeed/CyberPanel

qtwrk

in apache .htaccess file , we have something like this to deny access for certain files that needs to be protected

<FilesMatch "(?i)((\.ini|\.log|\.txt))">
 Require all denied
</FilesMatch>

but OpenLiteSpeed doesn't read this.

so how do we deny access for files or folders ?

1. deny files with certain ext.

by simply added this code into your .htaccess

RewriteRule ^/.*\.(log|ini|txt)$ - [F,L,NC]

so any files with .log , .ini and .txt should be denied from access.

2. deny folder to be accessed.

add following code into the bottom of "vhost main configuration" area, like in screenshots

context /system {
  type                    NULL
  location                /home/$VH_NAME/public_html/system
  allowBrowse             0
  addDefaultCharset       off
}

explain: this context will NOT allow any access to http(s)://domain/system
