[opensuse] Re: Re: Access forbidden!

HI all!

OK, I've been diging around and I'm mixed up here. When I use "warthog/" or
"warthog.de" I get the 403 error. But "localhost/~warthog/" gets to the
index.php file. So I am guessing that my host file is still messed up.

The file looks like this:

127.0.0.1 localhost


# special IPv6 addresses
::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback

fe00::0 ipv6-localnet

ff00::0 ipv6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ipv6-allnodes
ff02::2 ipv6-allrouters
ff02::3 ipv6-allhosts
192.168.178.21 warthog.de warthog
############

Ideas?

Thanks!

JIM

Access forbidden!

You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is
either no index document or the directory is read-protected.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

I think that its a permissions problem. But I'm not sure what to do.
Can someone give me a clue?

Thanks,

Per has already answered this but, just for clarification, Apache is
set by default as a security precaution to not list the contents of
empty directories (includes '../ parent directory'). Check your
document root is set properly and that the directory is not empty.

Good point Carl - if the document root does not have an index file (e.g.
index.html), permission will also be denied.
