The following files have therefore been removed from the typo3/ directory directly: .. code-block:: 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 The typo3/install/ entrypoint is now also redirected with a rewrite rule. Impact ====== All references / links to these entry points directly without using the proper API calls will result in a 404 error. If an Apache webserver is used with the enabled mod_rewrite module, a .htaccess file placed inside typo3/ will rewrite the URLs to the deprecated.php and throw a deprecation warning. For Nginx and IIS an alternative for the rewrite rules in the shipped typo3/.htaccess within needs to be added. Affected Installations ====================== Installations with third-party extensions that link directly to these files. 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. .. index:: PHP-API
