Forbidden 403 error in Leopard 10.5

When turning on web sharing on 10.5 I had an error message

Forbidden: 403 Error
You dont have permissions to access localhost/~juo

Strange I thought, the fix is pretty simple though.

  1. Edit the httpd.conf file, at /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
  2. Edit the file (you can use Pico “sudo pico httpd.conf”) and search for <Directory />
  3. Change the line that says Deny from all to Allow from all
  4. Save
  5. Stop and start the web server in the control panel
