[Apache] How to Fix 'Forbidden You don't have permission to access xxx on this server'

Here’s a memo on how to deal with Apache access permission errors like the following:

Error Message

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access xxx on this server

Check Directory Permission Settings

chmod o+x /home/myapp.com

Check httpd.conf Settings

Writing settings like Order deny,allow or Allow from all incorrectly in httpd.conf will prevent access.


    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order deny,allow
    Allow from all
