IOerror: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden

[Reynaldo Torres]

Good morning all, I would like to know if someone would be kind enough to help me to find the error that I'm getting once I have allocated a static IP instead of using dhcp in RedHat Fedora 9.0, I can't use the online update also can't browse the web. Using dhcp is not a problem to go out, but using a static IP I get the error HTTP Error 403: Forbidden. I have checked every possible configuration file where the IP is configured, the domain name and the gateway, but I don't seem to find the main problem. I am new learning about Linux, so every help is really appreciated; I will give points for taking the time to respond.

Thanks for your help,

RT.

Go through the configuration file and look for the Static IP address.

Then look at the error_log file.

You will see a meangingful error that will tell where the problem is.

Probably a combination of the ip addy in httpd.conf and an alias is pointing to a directory that either does not exist or doesn't have other read priviledges.
