Error 403 - Forbidden

Submitted by Paddy on Mon, 2009-03-30 11:35 in

I've installed pricetapestry on my site, when I navigate to /admin/ I get an Error 403 - forbidden warning. Can you tell me what is going wrong?

Hi Paddy,

That shouldn't happen unless there is a .htaccess file in /admin/ that is preventing access (it's not part of the distribution) - so could you check for that?

Alternatively, i'm wondering if a previous script that also used a /admin/ folder has been installed on your server and a .htaccess in the top level contains code to prevent access to /admin/.

I'm assuming that you are not getting an error browsing the top level? Both use index.php - so that would rule out your web server not being configured to serve index.php as the default document.

If you're still not sure, feel free to email me a link to where you have installed the script and I'll a take a look for you...

Cheers,
David.
