Error 403”
Cause:
You might be getting this error if you are you are trying to use a different directory other than the “htdocs” directory provided by xampp. Most likely when you are creating your own virtual host.
If you are getting this error, you will need to alter your virtual host to include the “directory” directive :
<Directory "G:\YCSoftware"> Order Deny,Allow Allow from 127.0.0.1 </Directory>
vhost config file location
xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf
so your entire virtual host should more or less looks like this:
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin ycsoftware@ycsoftware DocumentRoot "G:\ycsoftware" ServerName ycsoftware.net ServerAlias www.ycsoftware.net <Directory "G:\ycsoftware"> Order Deny,Allow Allow from 127.0.0.1 </Directory> </VirtualHost>
of course, replace ycsoftware with your own stuffs.
