403 Forbidden error
Hi, I just installed W.A.M.P. and everything is working great with the exception of one thing. The problem is that I created a virtual host for my domain name but every since I did that, I get an error message when I try to browse my website. Here is the error that the browser displays:
What could be cousing this error and how could I fix it?Code:Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Thanks for the help!

That could be a permissions issue, trying doing "chmod 755" on the directory containing the web files for your virtual host.

Thank you for the reply!
I figured out what was causing the error. I didn't specify any permissions for my virtual host directory, so no one could access my website. To specify the right permissions, I had to add something like this to my virtual host conf file.
After I added this to my virutal host conf file, everything worked just fine.Code:<Directory "/path/to/my/website/directory"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>
