| 146656 | 2003-05-23 01:48:00 | I have my web server back up and running sort of... "sort of" being that one gets nothing but 403 error messages served: "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /outdoorggg1.htm on this server. Apache/1.3.23 Server at www.millerton.co.nz Port 80" (www.millerton.co.nz currently comes from somewhere else. but i decided to call my server that as i plan to move the site here.) I tried non exsistant files to get a 404 (as above) real image.gifs just incase it had taken exception to "index.htm" no joy, not allowed. Error logs say "403". I had figured that. Any one got any ideas what might be wrong with the set up? Running SuSE8.0 on a slug |

| 146657 | 2003-05-23 02:29:00 | I haven't used apache much but from what I remeber its a file ownership problem . I think you need to set the files to be owned (or at least accessable) by guest/nobody or similar . |

| 146658 | 2003-05-23 03:19:00 | Yep, I think it will be set up with default security: no-one has access. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 146659 | 2003-05-23 03:20:00 | Ooops, hit Post, whille thinking. It will be in the main configuration file for Apache. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 146660 | 2003-05-23 05:25:00 | Can you access it from itself? Must be permissions of some sort. Possibly locked to just 127.0.0.1 address. |

| 146661 | 2003-05-24 01:19:00 | JM, Any one can access 403s on http://202.0.37.227 its just that 403s is all they get! I went to true colors last night with D, and just got up. Am about to have a look at the permissions etc. Will see what is needed and get back here. .Clueless |

| 146662 | 2003-05-24 02:33:00 | What happens if you connect from SAM to http://127.0.0.1 and see if you get authentication. It takes me to your root folder, so Im guessing you needa specify the html file for apache to use :-) should be the /etc/httpd.conf file :-) Hope this helps Cheers Chill. *BTW - When I setup Apache, all I had to do was specify the html file, in my case was located in /home/josiah/web/index.html where I placed it :-)* |

| 146663 | 2003-05-24 02:57:00 | I had a quick look through the . conf file, i even pointed it at some better places, but there must be something i have overlooked cause it still wants to go from "/" http://127 . 0 . 0 . 1 does exactly the same . The problem is not accessing the server, but the way the server is(n't) accessing the files . . Clueless |

| 146664 | 2003-05-24 03:02:00 | try copying your index.html (or equivalent) to a folder (You've made) called /web then get into the command line and type this: # chmod /web 777 then type: #cd /web #chmod index.html 777 That'll set permissions for that file to everybody. Try that and post back :-) Cheers Chill. |

| 146665 | 2003-05-24 04:48:00 | Its fixed! The problem was to do with permissions, i ticked the little boxes in "others" see example ( . 0 . 37 . 227/images/snapshot8 . png" target="_blank">202 . 0 . 37 . 227) and all was well! Chill, "/" in this case refered not to Sams root directory, but index . htm selected "/user/local/httpd/something" directory . This is exactly where the . conf file told apache to start from . {yippy} now all i need to do is give it some fresh content! :p . Clueless |
