greenace92 Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 I've been messing around with security both through apache2.conf and an .htaccess. Right now if I try to visit my domain I am greeted with a Forbidden 403 message. I thought this was because of the Options -Indexes set in .htaccess but I commented it out and saved .htaccess and restarted the server. I set the initial <Directory > options to the default settings and I'm still getting the 403 Forbidden message. Any idea what I'm missing / what to check?

greenace92 Posted November 13, 2015 Author Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) I just wanted to add to this, relevant, I think I locked the apache2.conf as I can't seem to save any changes. I think I may have used chmod go-rwx I am root and I can't modify apache2.conf what does that imply? Could it be the user/group which I changed to www-data ?

greenace92 Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 The 403 forbidden I reliaze comes from not having an index page. Which would then lead to listing out the files in the directory however this is disabled by -Options. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/299471-403-forbidden-kind-of-locked-myself-out/#findComment-1526763 Share on other sites More sharing options...
