Forbidden 403 Error - New User

[electronicshed]

Hi, I recently signed up for the free hosting, when i try and goto my space i get the following error

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.

In your cPanel file manager or via FTP, try going to your public_html directory. Inside of it, there should be a file named .htaccess (If you are using the cPanel file manager, make sure you check the "Show hidden files (dotfiles)" box when starting it). There should be a section in that file saying the following:

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>

If that part of your file says something else, then change it to the above and see if that fixes it.

Also check that ~/public_html has universal read and execute permissions, which you should also be able to do from an FTP client or cPanel's file manager.
