With the Fedora Core 3 httpd package? This is because the SELinuxpolicy will deny httpd access to any unlabelled files by default. See:Joe, Do you know if apache puts anything useful in the error log in this case? If not, it should. This is becoming a hard-to-diagnose FAQ.No, nothing more useful; it should give the "Permission denied" error message too which would at least give the user a hope in diagnosing the problem, I've had that on my todo list for a while.
I wanted to update everyone with what I did in order to get apache and file permissions to work correctly on my machine.
First I added apache to my 'www' group I created for multiple users to edit a single file. Next I chmoded -R g+s /var/www/test which is my DocumentRoot in apache.
That seems to have solved all my problems with file permissions with multiple users editing a single file and getting rid of the 403 Forbidden error! Now all I have got to do is get cgi scripts to work!
Thanks for everyone's help. I hope this can help someone in the future :)
