[JimCoger]

Hi everybody,

It's weird, when i try to access phpMyAdmin from http://ip/phpMyAdmin after a fresh install of DirectAdmin, it just return 403 error.

And i have these in the error_log:

I think it's weird because i did a fresh install of DirectAdmin leaving anything untouched, is anything wrong with the latest DirectAdmin? or might be i missed something?

Please help!

Thank you.

I have tried this, but still not working. Nothing works with in /var/www/html, including:

roundcube
squirrelmail
phpMyAdmin

All return 403 error.

And i modified nothing after a fresh install

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Check the parent folder permissions then.

/var/www
/var/www/html

 

[JimCoger]

Check the parent folder permissions then.

/var/www
/var/www/html

Thank you very much.

It's solved by chmod 755 /var/www/html, It's weird the default permission is 700

Try chmod 701. It's a lot more secure and will probably work.
