help with apache?

[mitzman]

ok, so i did a search in the forums, and none of the solutions helped http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/frown.gif
i have apache setup so it points to /home/user/public_html when someone does http://mydomain/~user
but i get the 403 restricted error. The apached group and user is nobody, i tried changing it to the group that the users are in, no dice http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/frown.gif
any suggestions? the permissions have 755 on /home/user and /home/user/public_html

ack!

You may want to go into the user dir and type chmod -Rv 777 public_html That way the public_html dir as well as all files within the folder will be readable. On my machine that resolved the problem. I hope that this helped a little.
