Anyone's got similar experiences? This forbidden error does not happen to all search / browse pages, but some particular pages of them. Please advise, thanks.

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /prices/products.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Hi
I am getting the following message when I go to my domain:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Apache/2 Server at buytvsonline.com Port 80
I recently got injected with a nasty iframe virus, I got a message from Google saying this site may harm your computer. I have cleaned all the code and have received confirmation from Stopbadware.org that the virus has been cleaned. Not sure if this is part of the problem.
Hi,
"Forbidden" is normally returned by a properly configured web server when there is no "default" document to serve, such as index.php or index.html when a website or subdirectory of a website has been requested directly with no specific document provided.
First double-check that index.php is in place in the home directory of your site - the easiest way to do this is normally via your FTP program - simply connect as usual and check in the remote window that index.php. If not, replace the file from your local copy and that should be all it is.
If index.php does appear to be present; it is most likely that your web server is not configured to serve index.php as the default document - and if this is the case it would need to be resolved by your host (unless you're running a dedicated server or VPS in which case you probably have access to the web server configuration)... An email to support asking why www.example.com/ is returning "Forbidden" when index.php _is_ present in the folder corresponding to that URL should give them all the information they need to resolve the problem..,
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
David.
Hi,
I have not come across this before, but it sounds like the normal Apache web server handling for a missing document, however the fact that you say it works for some product links means the file must be present! (assuming that /prices/ is the name of the folder that you have installed Price Tapestry into).
Could you perhaps email me a link to your site, if possible a search query that will generate product links that generate the described error - and also include a copy of your config.php as an attachment and i'll take a look for you...
Cheers,
David.
