TYPO3 custom url pointing to folder

I'm trying to move my old TYPO3 website to WordPress. For migration I want to use cms2cms.

I need to upload custom php files and make them accessible on: http://domain/cms2cms/bridge.php.

Where should I upload that folder (I have tried uploading to fileadmin folder).

When I try that URL, I get redirected to page not found.

How can I set URL pointing to that folder?

I know nothing about TYPO3.

It's version is 6.1.7

I contacted the team who built this Typo3 site originally (10 years ago). They have moved the cms2cms forlder from fileadmin folder to root folder, which is outside the typo3 configuration.

/pub/cust/site1/www/fileadmin/cms2cms --> /pub/cust/site1/www

I found that I didn't even have access to that root folder. So probably there was no way to configure url mapping in Typo3 storage.

Thanks to all for your replies.

Since TYPO3 6.2(?) you can define File Storages to access further folders than only /filadmin in the backend of TYPO3.

You need to define a file storage for your web root. Then you can create the folder /cms2cms. For easier handling (and better security) you then should delete that file storage ad create an own file storage for that folder only.

So you end up with two file storages in the TYPO3 backend you can access (if the general rights for that installation permit creating new folders in webroot)

If you upload files to fileadmin, they're available at e.g. http://domain/fileadmin/cms2cms/bridge.php.

In case you really need the files to be in http://domain/cms2cms/bridge.php you need to do the upload via FTP or SSH. With the TYPO3 backend there is no way to store files on the root level.
