that accessing the page or resource you were trying to reach is absolutely forbidden for some reason. This article contains basic troubleshooting instructions for 403 Forbidden errors. Symptom You get the following error displaying the error page application instantiation error table doesn't exist error when you try to visit a web page: Figure 1. Causes and Solutions There are three common causes for this error. Here they are listed from most likely to least likely. Empty html directory Empty httpdocs directory Make sure that your website content has been uploaded to the correct directory on your server. Remember to replace example.com with your own domain name. Grid: error displaying the error page joomla /domains/example.com/html/ This is the path you will use for FTP. However, the full path to your website content is /home/00000/domains/example.com/html/. The 00000 is your site number. See this article for details. DV server: /var/www/vhosts/dv-example.com/httpdocs/ When you connect with your FTP user, you just need to navigate into the httpdocs directory. If this folder does not exist, feel free to create it. No index page The home page for your website must be called index.php or index.html. To resolve this error, upload an index page to your htmlhttpdocs directory. If you already have a home page called something else - home.html for example - you have a couple of options: Rename your home page to index.html or index.php. Set up a redirect on the index page to your real home page. See How do I redirect my site using a .htaccess file? for details. Set a different default home page in your .htaccess.htaccess file. Javascript Kit has a good example.

Now at this point bad guys know http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/46171/is-it-a-good-practice-to-show-403-unauthorized-access-error-to-user that this might be of interest and start to see if they can do something to get access to this secret data. So is it good to show this error or just redirect to some other place? Edit I am thinking of dealing with error is to redirect to separate login page to access that particular resourse. But in this case also what if I simply don't want any one (may be even admin) to have access to these resource via my application. Offcourse admin can access the same resource by some other mean at the backend. http data-leakage share|improve this question edited Dec 4 '13 at 5:08 asked Nov 28 '13 at 8:10 ThankYouSRT 1481110 migrated from webapps.stackexchange.com Nov 28 '13 at 10:51 This question came from our site for power users of web applications.

Symphony is catching 404 errors correctly, but is missing the 403. This http://serverfault.com/questions/331833/custom-403-error-page-not-showing happens in my computer (mac os 10.6.6 and in my live site in bluehost). I noticed that getsymphony.com also doesn't display a custom 403 error page. Try http://getsymphony.com/workspace/ I'm using Symphony 2.2. Do you know how Symphony handles error pages internally? Thanks, Juan czheng 02 Apr 11, 6:46 am Comment #2 Have you tried page types? juanfornos 02 Apr 11, 6:53 am Comment error displaying #3 Yes, I'm using page types. czheng 02 Apr 11, 6:57 am Comment #4 So you've got a 403 page created, and it's not being displayed? juanfornos 02 Apr 11, 7:09 am Comment #5 Nop :( However, the 404 page is displayed correctly. That's why I'm lost. Thanks for your help Craig. :) michael-e 02 Apr 11, 7:16 am Comment #6 To really understand what you do please let me ask two questions: What is being displayed? (Is it error displaying the the server's 403 page? Or Symphony's default 403 page?) Why do you expect Symphony to display a 403 page? juanfornos 02 Apr 11, 7:54 am Comment #7 Hi Michael, Sorry, I omitted this info because I thought it was obvious: 1) The server's 403 page. 2) I'm pointing the browser to a forbidden place like mysite.com/workspace Thanks, Juan michael-e 02 Apr 11, 8:13 am Comment #8 By default Symphony will not interfere with Apache's 403 functionality. So Symphony's 403 page (a default one, or your custom 403 page) will only be thrown when a page is forbidden by Symphony functionality. You should, for example, see your custom 403 page if you try to access a page with a page type of "Admin" without being logged in to Symphony. If you want Symphony's 403 page to be delivered for every 403 occurrence, you can make Apache do this by adding a rule to your .htaccess file (above the Symphony part): ErrorDocument 403 /error-403/ (In this example your 403 page's handle is error-403.) juanfornos 02 Apr 11, 9:01 am Comment #9 Ok, that clarifies everything. I think this should be mentioned in the documentation to avoid confusion. Thanks Michael and Graig. :) czheng 02 Apr 11, 12:05 pm Comment #10 Noted. Create an account or sign in to comment.

Firstly, is this the right approach to restrict access? I have a .htaccess file in my root that handles rewriting and error documents. There are two pages in the root - 403.php and 404.php - for 403 and 404 errors. And I have these rules added to my .htaccess file: ErrorDocument 404 /404.php ErrorDocument 403 /403.php Now, the 404 page works just fine. The 403 page does not show when I try to access the 'includes' folder - I get the standard apache 403 error page instead, saying 'Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.' However, when I try going to the .htaccess file (in the web root) in my browser, I get my custom 403 error page.

Who's the owner of the files? As far as the ErrorDocument directives not applying, is the .htaccess file in a parent directory of your includes directory? –Shane Madden♦ Nov 17 '11 at 6:12 Yes, from web requests. The .hta
