dmccabe Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Ok here's what I had. I "was" running IIS and running a Wordpress page through it, all working fine. I then decided to change to Wamp (apache), so I disabled the IIS server, installed WAMP, moved my wordpress directory from c:\inetpub\www\wordpress to c:\wamp\www\wordpress Now when I try to access localhost/wordpress I get an access denied message from the browser. How can I make it work again? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/98830-access-denied/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Make sure the apache user has read access to the c:\wamp\www\wordpress directory. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/98830-access-denied/#findComment-505712 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccabe Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Unfortunately I am not at work now, but I was trying to add access for users and never saw one called apache. The web server is in a domain, but I added the "everyone" group from the domain and the local users list with full access to the www folder and all sub folders, but it still said it was denied access :/ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/98830-access-denied/#findComment-505860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Check your httpd.conf file to find out the name of the apache user/group. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/98830-access-denied/#findComment-505946 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildteen88 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Windows doesn't use User/group permissions (well Vista does but very confusing, however shouldn't affect Apache) This appears to be an Apache configuration issue. Can you access http://localhost/wordpress/index.php if you can then you'll need to enable Indexes Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/98830-access-denied/#findComment-505963 Share on other sites More sharing options...
