[users@httpd] Novice needs help
Hi. I've just got Apache to run a web server on my computer, however when I
try and go to my web page it gives a 403 error. I have configured my proxy
server to direct HTTP to my PC, and I have a dynamic DNS address and
program. I havn't touched the configuration of Apache though it all looked
ok from what I can tell. My firewall is deffinetly not stopping anything
either. My first thoughts is that it is the permissions that are not set
right, I am using Windows 2000. Could someone please give me some help with
this? It would be very appreciated. http://maltelec.no-ip.com Thanks very
much. Simon.

What does the error log say?
Finding a "tail" program that can continually look at a logfile as it
comes in might help you a lot.

Patrick, just tried accessing it locally and it worked, both on my machine
and my proxy server machine. I've put both the config file and the error log
on my ftp server http://www-users.york.ac.uk/~srm109/other/apache/error.log
and http://www-users.york.ac.uk/~srm109/other/apache/httpd.conf the access
log was empty until I accessed the http server locally.
As for a virtual domain, I have no idea what that is. Anything beyond
hardware and MS Paint is a mystery to me.
Dan, the error log (link above) only states when the server started,
restarted, stopped etc.
Regards, Simon

Simon,
Have you first tried connecting to your apache using localhost?
Furthermore, you dont give us any info on how you have configured your
httpd. Can you snip us the httpd.conf? Have you made a virtual domain or
just a plain one. Virtuals always are my fav because that way you have
the complete site config in one handy <virtualdomain> block without
wasting the original config.

Patrick, just tried accessing it locally and it worked, both on my machine
and my proxy server machine. I've put both the config file and the error log
on my ftp server http://www-users.york.ac.uk/~srm109/other/apache/error.log
and http://www-users.york.ac.uk/~srm109/other/apache/httpd.conf the access
log was empty until I accessed the http server locally.
As for a virtual domain, I have no idea what that is. Anything beyond
hardware and MS Paint is a mystery to me.
Dan, the error log (link above) only states when the server started,
restarted, stopped etc.

Simon,
Have you first tried connecting to your apache using localhost?
Furthermore, you dont give us any info on how you have configured your
httpd. Can you snip us the httpd.conf? Have you made a virtual domain or
just a plain one. Virtuals always are my fav because that way you have
the complete site config in one handy <virtualdomain> block without
wasting the original config.
