Manually clear log files

  • when I attempt to clear the log file using the blue button on the csp log admin page I get the following error:

    error: {“code”:”rest_no_route”,”message”:”No route was found matching the URL and request method”,”data”:{“status”:404}}
    Please Retry.

    Is there a way to manually clear the logs?

    I also receive the following error when I press the “Allow SCRIPT-SRC access” button

    error: {“code”:”rest_no_route”,”message”:”No route was found matching the URL and request method”,”data”:{“status”:404}}
    Please Retry.

    I assume it’s related but I since I am able to manually add items to the CSP options page it is not a big deal – being able to clear the logs would be nice though.

    Thanks,

    Joe

    Go to https://www.yoursite.com/wp-json and make sure it comes back with text (not an error or redirect to home page). Should start with “{“name”:”Your Site Name”,”description”” If it comes back with nothing then your rest API is disabled, maybe a security plugin did it?

    Look for wpcsp in the text (Ctrl-F in most browsers) – that’s the plugin registering the REST routes. If nothing then CSP is not registering routes – make sure its activated. Look for errors in the server error log.

    Look for RestAdmin in the text something like \/wp-json\/wpcsp\/v1\/route\/RestAdmin should appear. Make sure you’re logged in doing this as that route only registers when logged in. If nothing then CSP is not registering the admin route – make sure you’re logged in.

    If your site is in a subfolder that might cause some issues, let me know as I thought I had all of them squashed.

    Thank you for the quick reply!

    I checked my sites json and it comes back with text (no error).

    I am able to locate “wpcsp” in the text.

    I am able to locate items that are similar to: “\/wp-json\/wpcsp\/v1\/route\/RestAdmin” in the text also.

    My site is not in a subdomain it is a top-level domain name. I created a dev site on my web host and the plugin is working fine on the dev site. I assume there must be a conflict with existing plugin/theme on my production site. I will continue to troubleshoot on my end.

    Thanks again for the quick reply.

    On the network tab of your browser what is the URL that is being requested? It should be something like https://localhost.com/wp-json/wpcsp/v1/route/RestAdmin

    There should be form data similar to:

    subaction:clearLogFile
_wpnonce:892fafd975

    And it should be a POST (not a GET). I was testing and using GET will cause the “no rest route” error as the route is only registered for POSTs. You can manually change the register_route code to allow either – search for WP_REST_Server::CREATABLE and change it to:
    'methods' => array( WP_REST_Server::CREATABLE, WP_REST_Server::READABLE ) ,

    Making this change allows GET to work. https://localhost.com/wp-json/wpcsp/v1/route/RestAdmin?_wpnonce=zzzz

    I’ll change the underlying code to allow either method.
