This was a new centos 6.4 server I built just for testing ispconfig so no previous configurations. I followed this document to build the server; http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-centos-6.4-x86_64-apache2-dovecot-ispconfig-3 I had a number of problems which the doc didn't cover but I fixed all of them but now at the final stage, time to log into the web internet, I get the following. >Forbidden >You don't have permission to access / on this server. >Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an >ErrorDocument to handle the request. I tried loosening up the permissions in httpd.conf which didn't make any difference. I tried the same thing in some of the ispconfig config files with no difference. Here is a snip from the log. # tail -f /var/log/httpd/error_log [Sat Nov 23 16:52:10 2013] [warn] RSA server certificate is a CA certificate (BasicConstraints: CA == TRUE !?)

Thanks kindly.
Could you access the ISPConfig CP by using https://server.mydomain.com, change the domain sever.mydomain.com to your one?
Using http and the port, I get; (which makes sense of course) <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>400 Bad Request</title> </head><body> <h1>Bad Request</h1> <p>Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.<br /> Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port.<br /> Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please.<br /> <blockquote>Hint: <a href="https://isp.mydomain.com:8080/"><b>https://isp.mydomain.com:8080/</b></a></blockquote></p> </body></html> Using http or https without the port, I get; Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Please put the Code in Code Tags like [ code ]code[ / code ] (remove the spaces) for to see correctly what's posted, it will look so: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>400 Bad Request</title> </head><body> <h1>Bad Request</h1> <p>Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.<br /> Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port.<br /> Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please.<br /> <blockquote>Hint: <a href="https://isp.mydomain.com:8080/"><b>https://isp.mydomain.com:8080/</b></a></blockquote></p> </body></html> Now a question: your sever is located at your Office/Home or an Data Center? If at your Office/Home, check your Router has Port 8080 enabled for Remote Administration. If that is the case, change the Port 8080 in your Router if possible to let 18080 or change the Port in ISPConfig to let say 8090, not use 8081 or 8082, they're maybe used by other apps. First you've to get ISPConfig CP to run. so try to logon with https://server.mydomain.com:8080 or the port you changed to in ISPConfig.
The server is local so there is no firewall problem. Besides, as I posted, I am reaching the server, it's just not responding properly. The logs show that there is a permissions problem but I'm not sure where. Thanks.
