You probably need to modify the access rights of the associated Directory
section accordingly.
I am not familiar with Apache on Win XP but I guess you need something like
<Directory "G:/tees">
Options MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
-ascs

Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] configuration question from an Apache newbie
Forgive me for asking a possibly very basic question. I'm good in a lot of
technical areas, but I'm trying to get Apache working and it's my first time
ever to install any kind of server.
My server needs are simple, as I'm installing Apache for local use only; it
will not be accessible through the Internet. I'm running WinXP SP2. I
downloaded and installed the Apache 2.2.2 Win32 binary. The installation
appeared successful; after I finished, I pointed my browser to
http://127.0.0.1/, and received Apache's "It Works!" web page. I then opened
httpd.conf and changed the DocumentRoot directive to:
DocumentRoot "G:/tees"
which is my development directory. (That directory contains index.htm and
several other web pages.) But now, when I try to browse
http://127.0.0.1/, I get the familiar "Forbidden: You don't have permission to
access / on this server."
I've checked everything I can think of related to permissions and security, and
I don't know what the problem is. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
