Topic: 403 Forbidden

Hi there.

I have installed phpShop on my server, and got a problem.
Index.php is properly shown but when I click any links from the page, it goes to the error page saying "403 Forbidden."

My structure of phpShop is like this:

htdocs(root on my server)
  L index.php
  L javascript
  L styles
  L CVS
  L images
  L shop
    L CVS
    L db
    L etc
    L help
    L modules

This means, I put the files that used to be in htdocs folder on the root, and renamed "phpshop" folder to "shop" and kept the other files in it.
Hope you can understand this...

Anyway, I edited index.php and etc/config.php and they seems to be ok.
But when I try to go to other pages (any pages) from the home, the error happens and it says "You don't have permission to access /shop/ on this server."

Do you think you can help me out with this problem?
Something is wrong with Permssion? or Server Setting? or any mistake with my installation or file structure?

HELP ME!! sad

Re: 403 Forbidden

hi,
about paths - example:

The files for the web users (directory htdocs from the pack) would go to
/www/htdocs/
which is the same as http://localhost (defined as URL /SECUREURL in files/etc/config.php)
PS_BASE would be /www/files/
the directories db, etc and modules from the pack would go to
/www/files/db/
/www/files/etc/
/www/files/modules/

PS_BASE can be any directory on the server and – for security reasons - should NOT be a subdirectory of /www/htdocs/.
