Hello,

You would need to update the ownership of the files and folders of your new website so that the Apache service could access them.

The user that the Apache service runs with by default is www-data, if you’ve not changed it, you could use the chown command to change the owner of the files and folders of your new website:

chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/your_website

If you are still getting the error after that, you could check the Apache error log:

tail -100 /var/log/apache2/error.log

Hope that this helps.
Regards,
Bobby

      Hi,

      Can you share the output of your error log and also your Apache Vhost config that you’ve created?

          Hi,

          I could suggest a couple of things:

          • Add the following to your virtual host:
          <FileMatch "^\.ht">
  Order allow,dey
  Allow from all
</FileMatch>

          And then restart the Apache service

          • If you have SELinux enabled run the following two commands:
          setsebool -P httpd_enable_homedirs true
chcon -R -t httpd_sys_content_t /sites/sourceen54.com/htdocs

          Hope that this helps.
          Regards,
          Bobby
