I am running into a 403 Forbidden Error on all my sites pages. It just started happen around noon CST today. Very frustrating. Thanks for any help you can provide to get this corrected rapidly. The site is http://runethoughts.x10hosting.com/. The exact message is :

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.
Apache/2.2.9 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.9 OpenSSL/0.9.8b mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 Server at runethoughts.x10hosting.com Port 80
Edit:
Problem corrected. For some reason which goes without explaination my folder permissions on public_html changed to 766 instead of 755. Don't know how that happened, but I corrected it and it worked fine.

For anyone who runs into the Forbidden issue I recommend checked the folder permissions on public_html through your FTP client or cPanel and make sure it is set to 755.

Close thread.
