403 on webs

[fuban]

hi,

i got rid of confixx and installed ispconfig 2.08 on a brand new suse 9.3 setup - guided by the wonderful howto.

but i compiled php 4.40 and apage 2 myself to have the newest version.

well i install ispconfig, all went fine.
here is my problem:
i added a customer and a web - but when i type in the url of this web i get an 403 - forbidden.

another thing i haven't figured out yet:
when i add a web, how can i access this web via ftp?
it must be supereasy... but i dont get the point.

thanks, fabian

Has ISPConfig created the vhost file correctly? The vhosts are in the file
Vhost_ispconfig.conf. It is in the directory /etc/apache/vhosts or a similar directory under the config directory of your apache webserver. If you are unshure if the vhost is correct, post the content here.

Is the vhost configuration file included at the end of your httpd.conf?

What are the permissions of the directory of your website?

Create a new user and check the "Administrator" Checkbox. This user will be able to upload files via FTP to your website.

yes, the vhost setup is correct:
DocumentRoot /srv/www/web1/web

permissions:
linux:/srv/www/web1 # ls -lisa

is the file /srv/www/web1/web/index.html there?
Did you get an forbidden error even if you call www.yourdomain.com/index.html?
Is the IP in the vhost configuration correct and does the domain point to your server?

As it is a private network address, are you shure you configured DNS correctly for the domain?

well i'm setting the system up in my lan before i let it go public.
i have my hosts file updated to the local ip adress, so this should be fine

another thing, i just uninstalled ispconfig to start the installtion again - and i still get the 403 page (even if i clear cache) - so it looks like there is something with my httpd.conf ?

[falko]

Can you post your httpd.conf here? and also the output of

httpd -V

?

[fuban]

thanks for your help - but i ended up installing a debian 3.1 - and i'm much more happier with debian than with suse.
