Receiving 403 Error...

[skullys]

When I type in main domain / home page I am receiving 403 error.

However, pages within site are viewable by typing in complete address.

Subdomains are viewable as well

Forbidden

 

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

 

I checked my .htaccess file and here is what is shown

 

AuthName "No Access"

AuthUserFile "/home/skully/.htpasswds/public_html/passwd"

 

I haven't altered the access but it seems now to require password?

Rename the htaccess to something else so it will be ignored, then try again.

Renamed .htaccess file as you suggessted and still comes up with same 403 error.

 

Actually, a new .htaccess file was self-generated when I changed the name.

Here is what I see in the error log....

 

[Tue Aug 11 09:54:20 2015] [error] [client 75.110.162.66] File does not exist: /home/skully/public_html/403.shtml

You don't have an index file in your root directory. All I'm seeing is a file named:

 

index.html_ (with an underscore) which redirects to Skullys/Home.html

 

You need to rename the index.html_ without underscore. Also I've renamed your .htaccess file to copyhtaccess. If you didn't code that .htaccess file with what's in it, I would suggest you change your password.
