Plugin Directory: Plugins with 'reserved' names are broken

[Ipstenu]

If a plugin has wp-admin or wp-content as the first terms, they're broken right now :(

Examples:

• ​https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-content-copy-protector/
• ​https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-admin-bar-hide/

[wp-buy]

what to do to fix this?

[Ipstenu]

Wait until we fix it. It'll be as soon as we can.

My plugin also broken!

​https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-admin-bar-menus/

[rainbowgeek]

Same for me (​https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-admin-ui/) :(

This affects every plugin whose slug starts with /wp-admin, /wp-content, or /wp-includes. There's no need to post all of the examples of affected plugins.

All of the plugins mentioned above appear to be working now.

On my local install, however, they still triggered a 500 error due to one of the default Multisite rules in .htaccess:

RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]

Adding a slash after wp-(content|admin|includes) fixed that:

RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes)/.*) $2 [L]

This was indeed fixed awhile ago.

The meta environment appears to have incorrect rewrite rules, so I'd suggest opening a meta ticket to get those fixed.
