Why do I get a 403 error when accessing my apache server?
- by nishan
Im running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on a system with 2 GB RAM and a 500 GB HDD.
My hard drive has 4 partitions:
Partition 1 = 40 gb Windows (NTFS, lable = win32)
Partition 2 = 320 gb Windows (FAT label = common)
Partition 3 = 40 gb Ubuntu (EXT4)
I installed apached2. Then, to change its default www directory, I ran gksu gedit /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default and, in the editor, changed the location to /media/common/www.
After that I ran these commands in a terminal:
chmod 777 /media/common/www
chmod 777 /media/common/www/*.*
After that I ran: firefox 127.0.0.1/index.php
It said:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) Server at 127.0.0.1 Port 80
Before my changes it was working fine.
How can I run my websites?
