Operating system: RedHat - 2.6.9-5.EL 
PHP version:      5.1.2
PHP Bug Type:     Apache related
Bug description:  Access Forbidden

Description:
------------
I am using rpm packages that came with my Redhat Edition 
php-4.3.9-3.1
httpd-2.0.52-9.ent

I was facing this peculiar problem, I downloaded some PHP packages (ACID &
ADODB for Snort & phpMyAdmin)from the internet. when I unpacked the
packages in the document root and setting appropriate permissions I was
getting Access Forbidden Page -- Error 403... I was perplexed.. I have
hosted many sites & I am aware how permissions work for apache. PHP was
successfully installed & I could see the output for phpinfo().
BUT, if you copy (& not move) the whole package directory, after unpacking
& extracting it, to a different location; the problem goes away!!!!! 
It is very strange but the method works.

SO--after unpacking and extracting the package, you have to copy the whole
directory to a new location and set the permission again. Use the new
(copied) directory to host the website that you want to host...you will
not get that error..
I do not know whether it is the problem of OS or Apache or PHP..
May be somebody out there could use my experience!!!
Thanks a lot.
