Problems with Apache

post #1 of 42
4/30/12 at 2:50am
Thread Starter 
I recently set up my own simple web server using Apache.

I wanted to add a phpbb forum to it but I had to install php 5.3 instead of 5.4 because of phpbb having a problem with the strict standards in 5.4.

so I have a folder with my index.html file in it and a root folder, but now I can't access the root folder anymore through my browser.

I can see the webpage when I go to myhost.blabla but when I try myhost.blabla/root I get a 403 Forbidden...

I have no clue whats going on because besides the other version of php everything is the same...

Does /root have read permissions for your apache / http user and group?

I really can't make head nor tails of your bit in bold.

What's the underlying OS?

Ahh, ok. Someone else would have to advice then as I've only ever had to maintain existing installs of Apache on Windows (and even that was more Windows administration than I care for).

Sorry mate

Thanks though! Do you happen to know how to create a new "admin" user that has all the rights in the httpd.conf file? I think that might solve the problem..

right click on the folder containing the config files and the actual web files and go to the permissions tab. You should be able to edit and/or add the users needed to the folders there.

Although in my experience with Apache, it is much easier to set up and maintain in Linux. I just made a simply Ubuntu Virtual Machine in VMWare and it works flawlessly. If you decide to go that route let me know by PM or on here and I can help you out with guides, tips, etc.

Like the second one tongue.gif so I need to get rid of Options - Indexes if I have them or edit them? Don't have time to check it right now, but Ill have a look at it in an hour or so).

In Windows itself, all the permissions are as they're supposed to be (I got all permissions for the folder in question).
