I just copied my magento site over to a local server running CentOS 5.4. The browser said it can't locate the location of the stylesheets. The stylesheets are within /skin/frontend/my_new_interface/design2/css. I tried to view in the browser and I can't view any of the files within the css directory. I verified a million times that I'm typing in the correct location. I can view files within /skin/frontend/my_new_interface/design2. Can't browse directories within browser however.

I typed in ls -l css

and get:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 apache apache

listed for all the files

I tried chmod -R 755 and the directories

I changed the apache conf Options Indexes

But still when I browse the directories I get Forbidden. However, in another fresh installation of magento in the same www dir, I am able to browse directories. As far as I can tell both installations have same ownership and permissions.

I also tried

find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

which was recommended in the magento wiki

I've just run out of ideas.
