# Breaking: #72360 - Removed deprecated entry point fallback {#breaking-72360}

See [forge#72360](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/72360)

## Description {#description}

The entry point fallback mechanism introduced with [forge#68812](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/68812) has been removed.

The following entry points won't work anymore.

```shell
typo3/ajax.php
typo3/alt_clickmenu.php
typo3/alt_db_navframe.php
typo3/alt_doc.php
typo3/alt_file_navframe.php
typo3/browser.php
typo3/db_new.php
typo3/dummy.php
typo3/init.php
typo3/login_frameset.php
typo3/logout.php
typo3/mod.php
typo3/move_el.php
typo3/show_item.php
typo3/tce_db.php
typo3/tce_file.php
typo3/thumbs.php
```

## Impact {#impact}

All references / links to these entry points directly without using the proper API calls will result
in a 404 error.

## Affected Installations {#affected-installations}

Installations with third-party extensions that link directly to these files.

## Migration {#migration}

Move all existing code in extensions that link to the deprecated entry points to use methods
like `BackendUtility::getModuleUrl()` and `BackendUtility::getAjaxUrl()` or the UriBuilder class.
