    Error: 403 Forbidden

    Hello,

    I installed the umbraco files in the root but when I try to go to web and install the next error shows: 403 Forbidden - You don't have permission to access / on this server. I also set permison for all files to 777. Is there anything I should set in the control panel?

    Best regards,

    Andra

    I am not sure what the problem could be, but it sounds a bit like misconfiguration of the server. I think the first thing you should probably try is ask your webhosting provider why you're getting this error. Do you also get this error if you go to yoursite.ext/default.aspx?

    Hi, 

    thanks for reply. No, if I go to default.aspx then I get the aspx. code, the same with /install/default.aspx.

    Are you sure that your webhost is running a windows server and not a linux server? If you're setting permissions using CHMOD 777, that sounds an awful lot like your on a linux server without support for .net.

    Yes you are right... I haven't payed attention to that, I see now that hosting is on linux server and the only way for umbraco is windows server, right?

    Yes, although you could try it with Mono, but that's probably going to be a lot of work as it's not officially supported.. :-)
