[users@httpd] Permission Problem
hi!
i am using apache as my webserver and i have a problem accessing my php
files in my browser,
it used to work properly until i think I messed up things.
now i don;t know what to do. T_T
everytime i open my php files which are on
/var/www/htm/
it gives me the permission denied error.
i think i messed up with the chown and chgrp
i typed all these before this happened:
i think giving root the right to all apache resources. i probably was not
able to do it properly.
------------
# chown -R root:root /usr/local/apache
# find /usr/local/apache -type d | xargs chmod 755
# find /usr/local/apache -type f | xargs chmod 644
# chmod -R go-r /usr/local/apache/conf ->>im not too sure what this
does.
# chmod -R go-r /usr/local/apache/logs
--------------------------------------
i wanted to change permissions so that my apache could create a file.
now it forbids me to do anything.
even if i check on the status of my httpd:
/usr/sbin/apachectl status
It gives me this error:
Forbidden
You dont have permission to access /server-status on this server.
Same error is given when i try to access my http://localhost/ in the
browser:
Forbidden
You dont have permission to access / on this server.
--------------------------------------
Apache/2.2.3 (Red Hat) Server at localhost Port 80
In the httpd/logs/error.log it gives me these errors:
- (13)Permission denied: access to /denied
- (13) Permission denied: access to /favicon.ico denied
It seems to restrict me to access anything..
please help, how do i revert back to normal?
i need this to work properly again.
I know it has something to do with the permission, when i run the httpd it
cannot get through / on the server even..
thank you so much,
tinks

Thanks for this post (:
Here's for reference what to do with a forbidden:
Look into the error log.
http://onlamp.com/pub/a/apache/2004/04/22/apacheckbk.html
So either it's:
http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/13PermissionDenied
Or:
http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/ClientDeniedByServerConfiguration
