    Hi,

    First off, this plugin has saved me much raw database work. Thank you!

    If I could just get the CSV export to work, I would be thrilled. Instead, I get:

    You don’t have permission to access /wp-content/plugins/wc-product-customer-list/output/export-csv.php on this server.

    I see another report of this problem, where the original reporter never responded. Given the error below, I don’t think permissions are the issue.

    I have the latest WooCommerce & WordPress installed. The host is a FreeBSD 10.2-p20 with a ZFS filesystem. PHP 5.6. Apache 2.4.23.

    The error log says:

    [Fri Aug 26 13:13:51.201597 2016] [access_compat:error] [pid 85671] [client 69.14.191.77:58639] AH01797: client denied by server configuration: /var/www/twp/wp-content/plugins/wc-product-customer-list/output/export-csv.php

    The “server config” part made me think that it might be my .htaccess filter, so I added csv to my .htaccess a couple directories up:

    #allow only images, xml, etc
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    <Files ~ “.(xml|css|jpeg|png|gif|js|ico|jpg|ico|zip|woffi|eot|woff|ttf|svg|csv)$”>
    Allow from all
    </Files>

    Any suggestions? Any particular permissions this plugin needs that I’m missing|

    Thanks!

    Hi Lucas,

    I’m unfortunately not a specialist when it comes to servers, but it indeeds looks like a server configuration error more than a problem with the plugin. What happens when you completely remove that filter from your .htaccess file? Does it solve the issue?

    Or try adding “php” to your list of files

    For other people who hit this problem: yes, it was the file filter.

    I didn’t want to allow PHP files globally. I created wp-content/plugins/wc-product-customer-list/output/.htacces and allowed PHP files there.

    I now get my .csv exports from this plugin.

    Thank you, kokomo! I literally NEVER would have guessed I needed to allow php files.

    Glad you figured it out!
