ℹ️ What is this?

This is the connector component for Akeeba Panopticon, our self-hosted site monitoring software. You need to install it on your site to be able to monitor it with Akeeba Panopticon.

ℹ️ If you have a Joomla! 3 site please look at the Joomla 3 connector's repository instead.

🔎 Release highlights

  • ✨ Collect server information. Panopticon can now collect and display information about your site's server.

🖥️ System Requirements

  • Joomla! 4.0, 4.1, 4.3, 4.3, 4.4, and 5.0.
  • PHP versions 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, and 8.3 (PHP 8.1 or later required for Joomla! 5)

🧑🏽‍💻 Important note about the Joomla! API

Akeeba Panopticon Connector uses the Joomla! API application (the /api folder on your site). Around February 2023 there was a lot of unnecessary panic, leading some people to disable access to this folder through their .htaccess file. If you did that, you need to undo that change to re-enable access to the /api folder.

When Akeeba Panopticon connects to sites running on Joomla! 4 and later it makes use of code provided not only by its own connector, but also core Joomla! plugins in the webservices and api-authentication folders. Please make sure that the following plugins are enabled on your site:

  • Web Services - Panopticon (provided by this connector).
  • Web Services - Installer (provided by Joomla!).
  • API Authentication - Web Services Joomla Token (required for secure, token-based authentication to the Joomla! API).

If any of these plugins are disabled, or if its Access is set to anything other than Public, you will run into connection problems with your site. The connector itself will try to detect and report these issues, but there are cases it might fail to identify the problem.
