New page:
= Client denied by server configuration =
Access was denied by a deny directive.  This means that the access to the 
directory on the hard disk was denied by an Apache configuration.  [[BR]] This 
could be due to an expliciy deny directive being set, or more likely a folder 
that is outside of the documentroot is being accessed.

A few possible reasons to cause this entry to be recorded in your !ErrorLog

 * If you changed the !DocumentRoot, also change the <Directory> Block from the 
old root, to the new folder.
 * You need a <Directory> block for every folder outside of your !DocumentRoot, 
i.e. your cgi-bin folder.
 * You need a <Directory> or <Location> block for every Alias.
To fix this problem, look at the line in your !ErrorLog, and it will show you 
the folder it is trying to access.   [[BR]] You will now need to add a 
<Directory> block in your Apache configuration file.  See the example below for 
folder /usr/local/awstats/htdocs

{{{
<Directory /usr/local/awstats/htdocs>
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
</Directory>
}}}
This directory block will allow Apache to serve files from this location, to 
any incoming request
