Getting a 403 Error when it was working fine the other day. - El Forum - 08-31-2009

So I moved my site over to http://hutchwifi.com/ from http://www.hutchnetwireless.com/ and now I'm getting a 403 error. It was working fine before, the only thing I changed was the base directory in the config and in the .htaccess file. This is on a godaddy account to.

.htaccess
Code:
#Enable mod rewrite
RewriteEngine On
#the location of the root of your site
#if writing for subdirectories, you would enter /subdirectory
RewriteBase /

#Removes access to CodeIgniter system folder by users.
#Additionally this will allow you to create a System.php controller,
#previously this would not have been possible.
#'system' can be replaced if you have renamed your system folder.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^system.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]

#Checks to see if the user is attempting to access a valid file,
#such as an image or css document, if this isn't true it sends the
#request to index.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
#This last condition enables access to the images and css
#folders, and the robots.txt file
#Submitted by Michael Radlmaier (mradlmaier)
# I added this line based on some info from other posts
RewriteCond $1 !^(index.php|images|javascript|style|robots.txt|user_guide)

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

config.php
Code:
$config['base_url']    = "http://www.hutchwifi.com/";

$config['index_page'] = "";

$config['uri_protocol']    = "AUTO";

I've read all the "Do this to work with Godaddy!" and it DID work with these settings on my other godaddy account, but as soon as I moved it over and changed the base site shit hit the fan. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions as to what is going on?

Does your .htaccess file still include the old subdirectory structure (ksf/dev)?

Does the site work fine without the .htaccess?

If so, I'd strip it down to its most minimal form (such as the .htaccess examples here: http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Godaddy_Installaton_Tips/ or here: http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Dreamhost_.htaccess/ ) and try again.

Even with no .htaccess file it still give's me a forbidden error. I don't know wtf is going on i've tried every godaddy fix for CI and still the same shit. What gets me the most is I had it working on the other hosting account, it just doesn't make any damn sense.

Can you access regular(none CI) pages?

No, I think it has to do with the .htaccess file.

Quote:Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /test.html on this server.

Maybe because godaddy doesn't process .htaccess files but once an hour is why the settings would still be in place? Or do you think this could be a hosting issue instead?

Try changing the permissions in the directory. Not sure if this is possible with godaddy but it sounds like a permissions problem since your htaccess doesn't block anything. What are the permissions of the directory which contains the test.html file

Alright guys, thanks for the help so far, I think I've narrowed it down to a GoDaddy problem and have taken appropriate measures to resolve this. Smile
