Hum... fantastico

Do you have any idea what version of XOOPS that fantastico installed?

I ask this because the version I have on my server is
Description: (v2.2.3a-Final)

Which is no longer recomended.

I think you should start all over again. Do not use fantastico!!! Just install XOOPS from the package you download from here.

If you have alot of data then by all means back up you database first.

If you need help to install fresh just ask...

The version of XOOPS doesn't matter, because its not XOOPS thats returning the 403 forbidden message, its Apache.

Normally, the "You don't have permission to access /tuis/modules/newbb/post.php on this server" message means that the file is chmod'ed (file permissions) to 0640 or something like that. Just to be thorough, verify that the file is chmod'ed 0644, otherwise known as rw-r--r--

Hi,

403 may be given by mod_sec as was suggested. You may check this in mod_sec log file if you have access to it (and if it is set to log).

I did a search and one of the things that came up is this:

so mod_sec may be your problem ...
