Hi there.

On a 7.0.4 instance restored from backup, everything works fine from an existing user pov.

But from an admin account, access to settings is now showing an error message :  
**Cannot find method switchAction for plugin access.ajxp\_conf!**

No more info from pydio or server side logs either, this is the only message i get.

Hi,

Please verify access.ajxp\_conf plugin in plugins folder. if no, try to copy from [https://download.pydio.com/pub/core/archives/](https://download.pydio.com/pub/core/archives/)

Don’t forget to delete plugin cache (rm -rf data/cache/plugins\_\*)

Hi c12simple. Headshot !  
You are awesome.  
That did the trick.

Is this some kind of symbolic link inside pydio-core not properly rsync’ed back from backup ?

Should i force unzip the whole distro over the one restored from backup ?
