[Question #77571]: You don't have permission to access / on this server

 

New question #77571 on apache2 in ubuntu:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+question/77571

Running Jaunty on amd 64bit dual core since June 09. Apache2 installed by LAMP. 
Modified the /etc/apache2/sites-available/default from /var/www to /home/user/PUBLIC_HTML/website-folder. Works OK - and does on my old Heron 8.04 as well.

Purpose. To preview the website I do which are written in php (Using Quanta)

Suddenly on the AMD Jaunty 9.04, when I go http://localhost/  I'm getting :- 

FORBIDDEN  You don't have permiss to access / on this server.  Apache/2.2.11 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.6-3ubuntu4.1 with Suhosin-Patch Server at localhost Port 80

Got all folder and file permissions to flow (something changed them maybe) Still no good.
Looked at the conversation about IPv6 confusing with IPv4.

Even tried their solutions but I'm not familiar enough to get it right -if that's what it is.

I also replaced the apache2/sites-avail/default  to point back to /var/www and 'It Works!' shows up  as it should; then went back to my web folder - but nope...!

I do machine re-boot everytime I change apache2.

I am stuck after trying for hours.
Can anyone help?
Regards
Daf
