- .htaccess 403 problem
- Posted by snorkerz@gmail.com on March 10th, 2006
Could anyone tell me how to make a 403 page come up if there is no
index.htm etc file in a directory. My directories currently come up
with a list of the files in there. I know I can put IndexIgnore * in
the .htaccess file, but that doesn't generate the 403. Thanks All :-)

If I'm remembering correctly a 403 means "Forbidden". Are you sure
you're not thinking of 404 (Not Found)? If that's what you want you
need to look at ErrorDocument.

It is simple and works - two good things IMHO.

Can't argue with the logic - and agree it would work - but it's a case

You're right, 403 is 'Forbidden' but I'm sure that's what most apache
servers normally throw up instead of a list of files.

The real way of keeping people out is to make it impossible (or at
least very difficult) for them to get in. That "Apache basic access"
thing is one way to get the job done.

Toby gave you the right answer but to take it a step further, I prefer
doing it this way:
Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
But just the Options -Indexes will do what you're asking.

Just in case you're confused by all the other responses, Snorkerz,
Toby has it right.
