Forbidden Error on Apache 1.3.33
Hi Guys...
I'm having an issue with an Apache Server...
I installed it in a Debian Sarge Machine... I installed MySQL, PHP, ImageMagick, and Apache on that Server... I installed a CMS called JAWS (http://www.jaws.com.mx) and everything went ok.
When I ended installing JAWS on the Server I noticed that the images JAWS includes (buttons, arrows, etc) were not showing, so I went to the /var/www/ folder to verify that the /images folder was in there. Actually the folder and all its content its there.. The only problem is that by some reason I cannot access that directory, it gives me the following error:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /images/ on this server.
Apache/1.3.33 Server at 192.168.X.Y Port 80
I already checked on that folder and its owner was root so I cahnged it to www-data (apache user) and verify that all its content was readable and executable for other users...
I checked on httpd.conf and I found that the <Files > statement is correct, I just dont know what else to do as I'm a newbie.
I will really appreciate your help guys.
Thanks!!!

check you /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
there would be a line called
user apache
group apache
change that also to whatever user you want apache to run under (or the current ownership pattern of /var/www directory)

Hey guys...
I got it... I checked on Apache's Logs and I found that (I dont know why) those images were been taken from /usr/share/ , so I placed a cop of that /images folder inside that /usr/share/ and it solved the problem...
May somebody tell me why is that happening? I guess its JAWS fault right?
Thanks!!!
