Hi<br />
<br />
I am using Lighttpd on Centos 5.5. <br />
<br />
when I write <a href="http://myserver.com/abc" rel="ugc">http://myserver.com/abc</a>&nbsp;(abc is the name of folder) it shows me the folder in the browser.<br />
However when I define a virtual host and write <a href="http://myvirtualhost.com/abc" rel="ugc">http://myvirtualhost.com/abc</a>&nbsp;it shows &quot;403 - Forbidden&quot;<br />
<br />
Please help me in solving this issue.<br />
<br />
I have written the following at the bottom of lighttpd.conf<br />
<br />
<br />
$HTTP[&quot;host&quot;] =~ &quot;www\.mydomain\.com$&quot; {<br />
server.document-root = &quot;/home/myhome/sites/mydoma<wbr />in.com&quot;<br />
# &nbsp; &nbsp;server.errorlog = &quot;/var/log/lighttpd/error_d<wbr />omain.log&quot;<wbr /><br />

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.
