also on some setups you may need to set/change the owner of files (chown), but as part of the site is working, probably that is not the problem...

With regards to the last two posts.

If it's a mainfile, db issue, how would that result in a 403 forbidden page, it would show DB errors?

Normally this are made by .htaccess, or index.ext missing.

if index.php is there then it should work.

Just wondering in case I ever hit the same issue.


But the forum page works and the index.php is readed so there is not a index.ext missing either.

But that forbiden page... hum, yes maybe file permissons.

I'm not saying the ext is missing, but if the server is not set-up correctly, then it may not recognise index.php as a default extension, so it looks for index.html and when it's not there it will give a forbidden to prevent directory viewing.

I used to have this issue with shared hosts a long time ago before running getting our own servers.

There are of course other causes as mentioned above.

Cool, well as long as we all helped you and you got the result you required then that's good.

I'm guessing you like the UK, or are you just in the education business?
