Apache Forbidden: httpd.conf or File Permissions
- by Alan Storm
When setting up an Apache virtual host, I'll occasionally get the following error when attempting to access the site.
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Is there any method to (or tool that will) tell me why Apache is denying access? (local rule in httpd.conf, file permissions, etc.
I'm not looking for help with a specific configuration, instead I'm looking for a way to have the computer tell me what's wrong with my system and/or configuration.
