I just setup this module... lots of nice tools... especially the ability to limit repeated login attempts. Since I'm working on a dev site, I tried setting up the tool "Give access only for listed IP-s" and put in my workstation internet IP... I soon noticed I was getting the admin emails below... every minute. I tried adding my server's dedicated IP address plus local IP 127.0.0.1 but the emails continued every minute... until I finally turned the tool off. Any ideas? I'm using shared hosting... should I contact my hosting provider? Subject: Cron <myaccount@node01> cd /home/myaccount/public_html/periodic; /usr/local/bin/php -q cron.php

Hello We didn't have deal with such problem before. Could you please provide us with FTP, CPanel and Dolphin admin panel access info that we can investigate it and fix. You may send them via Unity internal mailbox. Thanks for the report. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
It appears its a cron job associated with my hosting company and not to worry about. http://pkforum.dolphinhelp.com |
Hello Great. Thanks to let me know. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |

Hello! IPs database was updated. Also it's compatible with new Dolphin 7.1 now. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
I would like a feature added if possible. Let's say I block a country. I have a member that has a friend in the country that is blocked that would like to join the site. Could their be a way to block a country but have a place for allowed IP addresses from that country or countries for when multiple countries are blocked? Geeks, making the world a better place |
Hello, geek_girl! By default, Access Management System allows to close access for several countries or close access for all users except defined IPs. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
Why is everything always a custom mod where we have to pay more? I will just hack it myself. Another feature that would be nice is a confirmation on the members you are deleting to prevent deleting the wrong members. Geeks, making the world a better place |

I have some members that claimed the "fail login attempts" still prevents them from logging in after the 24 hour period. Where can I go, in the database or the programme, to remove these blocks based on failed logins? Thank you. Geeks, making the world a better place |
Hello, geek_girl! You can remove all failed login attempts from admin panel -> modules -> Access Management System -> Failed login attempts area. Also you may increase the number of login attempts before ban in admin panel -> modules -> Access Management System -> Tools -> Settings -> "Failed Attempts" feature settings drop down area. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
I have two people that are stilled banned even though I remove them from the failed log on. The only thing I know to do is to uninstall the module and that would clear all data. Please advise. Geeks, making the world a better place |
I depend on AMS2 to manage site access and have on several occasions had to 'delete' site members IPs from the Failed Login Attempts list in allow members to login after their limit has been reached. The feature appears to work... though I wish the list of Failed Login Attempts was setup to allow sorting by IP or Date... so I could see how the list items group under each. Right now I have it ordered by Date. Would also be nice to have the list auto delete old entries that are less than the limit. My list has gotten very long and I'm forced to manually prune it from time to time. http://pkforum.dolphinhelp.com |
Have you tried to log into the "banned" accounts yourself? I had a site-member who informed me they still block after I definitely unblocked them... but when I tried I could log in. Then they tried and could log in. No idea whether it was operator error or a glitch in how the code functions. geek_girlI have two people that are stilled banned even though I remove them from the failed log on. The only thing I know to do is to uninstall the module and that would clear all data. Please advise.

I have removed them from the list. The thing is, after x hours, the ban is suppose to automatically be lifted; how does work? Does the module automatically delete them from the list/from the database? Is this dependent on a cron job? They are telling me, even after I removed them from the list, he message is stating their IP address is banned. Geeks, making the world a better place |
In my experience... after I've deleted their IP address from the "Failed Attempts" list, then they can login. If I don't then once the site-member has reached the "Failed Attempt" limit, which we as site admins set, then the "banned" person must wait for a predetermined time period before they can make another attempt... and if they then fail then they must wait again. For example, if you set the "Attempts" limit to 10 and set the delay period for one hour... then after 10 successive failed attempts they must wait at least an hour before their 11th attempt... if they fail they must wait at least another hour for their 12th try... and so on. And once they're in a 'banned' state (e.g. must wait at least an hour after each failed attempt) then they remain that way until you (the admin) manually edits the list of failed attempts to remove them. You can leave them... I have several IPs listed with over 50 failed attempts to login... these cases are obviously not site members but SPAM bots attempting to gain access. I suggest you double check by trying to log into the 'banned' account about to verify it's actually banned. If it is banned but not on the AMS Failed Attempt list then look for other ways it could be banned. AMS is not the only dolphin tool/module capable of blocking login and banning accounts. If you're blocking by country then check to ensure the banned IP is correctly filtered by the country IP blocks listed the AMS database table. http://pkforum.dolphinhelp.com |
Hello! epaulo, thanks for your assistance and suggestions. geek_girl, if you still have any problems, please, let us now. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
Hello!
Version was updated up to 2.0.9 Changes for IP detection were added. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
Just want to report back that the two members are now able to log in. I cleared out the entire list of failed log-on attempts. My guess is they were in the list more than once and perhaps that was the problem. Thanks epaulo for your explanation and thanks AntonLV for your assistance as well.

Hello! IPs database was updated. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
Feature request... please add option to auto-prune the Failed Attempts list in two ways... number of days on the list without further failed attempts and number of failed attempts. Plus another option to clear very old rows. For example, one cronjob where all rows greater than x number of days are deleted *except* if the number of failed attempts is greater than x number of times. Plus a second cronjob where all rows greater than x number of days are deleted. For simplicity, you could just have two instances of the first cronjob, i.e. with different parameters. My motivation... I find myself pruning the Failed Login Attempts list a few times a week to reduce the number of rows for easier for viewing, i.e. removing older rows with a low number of attempts while retaining "SPAMMER" rows that have made numerous attempts within a short time frame. When I notice a "SPAMMER" IP block then I add it to the blocked list and remove those rows from the Failed Attempt list. http://pkforum.dolphinhelp.com |

Hello!
All how want to update IPs base without installation, send me the request via inbox, I'll provide you with the file. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
I am using 2.0.8; although I will upgrade to 3.0. My question is that it appears that my failed login attempts are not being cleared out. I had a member that claimed she logged in only once, and it banned her. What I think is the problem is that one night she might log in wrong, then she logs in correct and gets in. She repeats this for several nights until she is banned. Then I have to clear out the failed logins in order to reset her. I have no idea how many have encountered this and it will cost me members. Has this been changed in 3.0? If nothing else, I need a cron job that I can set that will clear the failed logins at some set time, every three nights might be enough to prevent banning legitimate members of my site. The idea is to not locked legitimate members out of my site if they type the wrong password once or twice a week. Evidently it accumulates when they do it once or twice until they reach the limit and then bam they are locked out. Geeks, making the world a better place |
Hello! We have just updated Access Management System module. You can install new 2.1.1. version. Now all failed attempts will be removed in period of hours prescribed in settings. By default you can see in admin panel -> modules -> Access Management System -> Settings -> "Failed Attempts" feature settings two parameters and second one (During this period of time (in hours) person will not be able to open your site from banned IP) shows number of hours in which blocked IPs will be removed from failed attempts area. Now all failed attempts, which were made from any IP, will be also removed if member from this IP is successfully logged. P.S. We have corrected version number, it was incorrect. The latest version is 2.1.1 Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
Thanks Anton. So outside of the ip database that you supplied, the only other change I need to do is to add this sql query for the cron jobs? INSERT INTO `sys_cron_jobs` (`name`, `time`, `class`, `file`, `eval`) VALUES Geeks, making the world a better place |
I upgraded but it did not fix my database error messages I have been getting for a month. Query: UPDATE `aqb_ams_failedatts` SET `Time` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP() WHERE `IP` = INET_ATON('68.64.172.220') LIMIT 1 Mysql error: Duplicate entry '1145089244-1394345348' for key 'ID_2' Found error in the file '*/modules/aqb/ams/classes/AqbAmsDb.php*' at line *83*.

Hi, geek_girl! Can you please provide us with your site's access info(ftp and admin panel)? We will check the files. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
I upgraded but it did not fix my database error messages I have been getting for a month. Query: UPDATE `aqb_ams_failedatts` SET `Time` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP() WHERE `IP` = INET_ATON('68.64.172.220') LIMIT 1 Mysql error: Duplicate entry '1145089244-1394345348' for key 'ID_2' Found error in the file '*/modules/aqb/ams/classes/AqbAmsDb.php*' at line *83*. Called '*query*' function with erroneous argument #*0*. Can not give access at this time.
Here is another that happened last night: Query: UPDATE `aqb_ams_failedatts` SET `Time` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP() WHERE `IP` = INET_ATON('216.152.251.83') LIMIT 1 Mysql error: Duplicate entry '3633904467-1394408205' for key 'ID_2' Different IP and different duplicate entry.
Looking at the code in question:
if ($this -> query("UPDATE `{$this -> _sPrefix}failedatts` SET `Time` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP() WHERE `IP` = INET_ATON('{$sIP}') LIMIT 1") != 1)
So looking at the error that mySql reported and the code that is creating the query, what do you think is the issue? Geeks, making the world a better place |
Hi, geek_girl! Replace this code: if ($this -> query("UPDATE `{$this -> _sPrefix}failedatts` SET `Time` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP() WHERE `IP` = INET_ATON('{$sIP}') LIMIT 1") != 1)
with this code:
$this -> query("REPLACE INTO `{$this -> _sPrefix}failedatts` SET `IP` = INET_ATON('{$sIP}'), `Time` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP()"); Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
At times I get the following database error; what do you think could be the cause?
REPLACE INTO `aqb_ams_failedatts` SET `IP` = INET_ATON('87.98.244.57:61491'), `Time` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP()
Mysql error: Column 'IP' cannot be null

Hello, geek_girl! Thanks for the bug report. We'll update the version in the nearest time and let you know. Best Regards AntonLV - http://www.boonex.com/market/posts/AntonLV |
I also see a bunch of these this morning; what do you think could be causing the duplicate entry?
UPDATE `aqb_ams_failedatts` SET `Time` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP() WHERE `IP` = INET_ATON('192.184.85.101') LIMIT 1
Mysql error: Duplicate entry '3233305957-1417778093' for key 'ID_2'

hi Anton, Please release an IP database update for your AMS module. I'm starting to get some "false negatives", i.e. some people from my country, while trying to register at my D7.0.9 site, are being blocked because their IP is not in the database yet. Would be great if you could simply provide an SQL script, which I can run from PHPMyAdmin, that empties You have my email...sent to you Sept 4th, 2013 (for the last update). Thank you, Paul http://pkforum.dolphinhelp.com |
