Modules/Extensions installed via composer problem

[blabbs55]

I've installed locally on my computer Magento 1.9.3 and then via composer have installed a couple of extensions.
Modules/Extensions are Fontis Australia Post and Better404.

They seem to have installed OK ,I can see them in the folders and in admin/System/Advanced/Modules Output.
BUT I cannot see them anywhere else in admin to enable them.

Can any one advise on this

Thank you

Hi @blabbs55,

If you check (on backend) into System - Configuration -> Advanced -> Advanced you'll see the full list of modules available on your Magento instance (available and installed).

Did you saw your modules there?

Thanks for your reply Damian

Yes I can see them there

Sorry. At some point my brain forgot the part when you said "I can see them in the folders and in admin/System/Advanced/Modules Output." (my bad)

In that case your modules are correctly installed.

If you aren't being able to see the modules on your backend, maybe you can run these checks:

• Webserver error logs.
• Activate the Magento logs and check if exception.log and system.log shows something related with those modules.

I've logged into my local MAMP Apache server logs and have a number of errors all with this same line

[Tue Nov 15 16:53:32 2016] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] client denied by server configuration: /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/Magento-1-9-3/site/app/etc/local.xml

File permission for local.xml is -rwxrwxrwx

Here is that Magento-1-9-3/site/app/etc/local.xml maybe there is an issue here?

Hi @blabbs55,

That's not a real error.

Short version: the local.xml file could be accesible from the outside but the .htacess rule blocks the file to avoid being read.
