Hi, i have a linux host and domain is mentorsanimation.com . I installed wordpress 3.1 into public_html but after installation when i click on visit site to access wp admin it shows "Forbidden You do not have permission to access this document. Web Server at mentorsanimation.com ".. Plz help its very urgent ...
Did you check the file and folder permissions? Is there anything in the error logs of the server or control panel?
Yes i have checked the file and folder permissions . All folders of wordpress are in 755 and files in 644 perms . Also there are no error logs in cpanel.
Just found a similar issue on the WordPress support forum: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/403-access-forbidden-to-admin-and-blog#post-704116 Hope it helps!
thanks but it didnt help me... few days ago i changed the host for the domain and updated with new name servers .
Then you've most likely uploaded WordPress to the old server, as I can't even access http://mentorsanimation.com/readme.html that comes with any WordPress installation. You should either wait for the DNS propagation (about 12-24 hours) or use the temporary URL provided by your new host. You must login to the FTP server using the server's IP address of the new host until the propagation completes.
@MH-Stefan's yes i had uploaded wordpress there but failed to delete the wordpress folder there , then i transferred the domain to a new host and changed the name servers . it has been more than 24 hours since i changed the name servers . I installed the wordpress in public_html folder but still i am facing this error .
The propagation can take in some quite rare cases up to 48 hours. Try to clear your browser and DNS cache, restart your computer and reconnect to the internet. Then login to your FTP account using your new server's IP address (not your domain), re-upload all WordPress files and try to install again. This is the only thing I can think of right now... If this fails, you should contact your host, they should have a solution for you.
Hey, if you're still having the issue, please feel free to hit me up, and I will help you sort this out (free of charge).
