Encountered a "403 Forbidden" error during installation

[cpnoob]

It says i don't have permission to access /coppermine/index.php on this server. any ideas on what's happening or what i may have left out? Thanks!

This is caused by improper server setup. 403 errors are caused by the webserver (usually apache), not coppermine. Are you sure you have the minimum requirements to run Coppermine? Also make sure there's no .htaccess file in place that keeps you from running it. For details, ask your webhost - nothing that could be done or advised from the people here on this board.

thanks for the reply! it's solved. i re-upload the setup files again and was able to install coppermine. Thank you once again!
