[users@httpd] 403 error for index.html

["Arun Jain" <jainarunk@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Group,

 

I installed Apache 2.2.3 on my Windows machine.  And I can see my Apache server icon, and in services

I see as started.

 

Very first time when I tried to look at index.html by typing

 

localhost/

or

my machine's IP address

 

it gives following errors.

 

HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden
Internet Explorer

 

Could someone tell me what do I need to do extra to get my server see my very first page.

 

Thanks.
