FORBIDDEN 403 showing up..and file is index

Ok...i have renamed my folder everything under the sun, then returned it to the original name of the index thing. But i keep getting that FORBIDDEN 403 ERROR thing. Except it saws in a line underneath that the owner has restricted this site. And i didn't. Please HELP!!

Re: FORBIDDEN 403 showing up..and file is index

you need to name your first page of your site
index.html and you then need to uploade your files place them in /public.html/index.html

Re: FORBIDDEN 403 showing up..and file is index

Go to the File Manager and make sure that you have a file named "index.html" or "index.htm". The name must be all lower case and spelled exactly. If it's named anything else, your basic URL will not work.

Upon closely reading Samantha's question, I think that she is renaming her FOLDER instead of her home page. Samantha, just make sure your home page has the file extension "index.htm(l).
