good evening.
Excuse my English.
I have blocked certain file types.
When you insert a pdf file in an input syntax is as follows.
http://www.mydomain.es/myblog?getfile=171
Can not get any user can download these files.
Any help?
I tested both downloads types : normal and fopen.
I still have the same problem.
Greetings

I'm bumping this rather than making a new post because I'm having the same problem.
I understand that I need to update the media files in my posts, but where is the getfile link generated?
Also, is there any other option than updating every media file? I've turned off the file locking and I want to make sure I don't tear something up simply deleting the htaccess file (that doesn't sound like the right thing to do)

I'm having the problem, too.
The problem is "Error: file not found" problem when clicking a link to a protected file (when loggged in as administrator).
I'm starting a new site and didn't create the protected posts/files until after I installed UAM.
I've tried -
o Moving my uploads directory from wp/../uploads to the default "wp/wp-content/uploads and making corresponding change to
o Turning off "extra web security" on the domain hosted at Dreamhost (thinking that might affect the "safe mode" setting)
o Changing to "normal" from "fopen"
I opened a new browser session to test after each change, and nothing seemed to help.
And now, I seem to have broken things so that a user other than the admin who *is* in the authorized group can no longer see a protected post, let alone the protected file. [The admin can still see the post, but still gets the "file not found".]
I'll go back and double check -- and probably reinstall -- but just thought I'd add some support to those having the problem.
