Body: <p>I am working on Joomla 3.6.5

  <p>I just did a fresh install of CiviVolunteer 4.6-2.2.1</p>
  
  <p>The install seems to have worked (no errors reported). But when I try to use this feature by going to</p>

  <p>I get this error:</p>
  
  <p>"Your extension resource url is not configured correctly. CiviVolunteer cannot work without this setting.
  Correct the problem at Settings - Resource URLs."</p>
  
  <p>So I go to Settings - Resource URLs, and this is my setting for custom extensions > Extension Resource URL:</p>
  
  <pre><code>/public_html/media/civicrm/custom_ext/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It matches what I have under Settings - Upload Directories > Extensions Directory:</p>
  
  <pre><code>/public_html/media/civicrm/custom_ext/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have other extensions installed and working properly from the same directory, such as SparkPost, Public Autocomplete, etc.</p>
  
  <p>So I suspect this is an .htaccess issue.  I checked with my host, and they say the file</p>
  
  <pre><code>/public_html/media/civicrm/.htaccess
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>is blocking access:  The .htaccess file reads:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;Files "*"&gt;
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
  &lt;/Files&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My host says this file is being generated by CiviCRM, not by them.  My other CiviCRM extensions are working fine.  So what am I missing?  Do I modify the .htaccess file?  Or would that create a security nightmare?  Or is this an issue that doesn't involve .htaccess at all?</p>

Comments.Text: I am on WordPress 4.8.1 / CiviCRM 4.7.23 and am seeing the same issue.  In CiviVolunteer, the absolute URL works - no error message; the relative URL does not - error message comes up and CiviVolunteer new project page is empty.
