    Hi Guys, this is my first post so please excuse my newbyness.

    I have an apache webserver running that I use for development. One thing I would like to set up is the ability for someone to click on a file in a list and download that file, but when the list comes up and someone clicks the file it says access denied. Here is a copy of what comes up:

    Access forbidden!

    You don't have permission to access the requested object. It is either read-protected or not readable by the server.

    I have the htaccess set to basic and was wondering if that was why. Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Do this on your configuration file, (\\\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-xampp.conf)

    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from localhost


    changed this to

    Deny From none
    Allow from All

    and saved the file , then i restarted xampp through Xampp control panel Application
    stop and start function.
