Dreamweaver 8 help

[nchenry]

I've designed my web page and even had it posted on the server. Then being the neat freak that I am, I started trying to reorganize my files. Now, when I try and view my web site I get an error saying "http 403 forbidden - the website declined to show this page - most likely causes: this website requires you to log in". Anyone know a fix for this or do I need to delete everything and start from scratch? I've had this problem before and dreamweaver did something to the cache and it started working again. But I don't know what I did last time!!

Thanks!
Nicole

Ok, 403 is a permissions error.
Go to your dreamweaver site, remote view. Select all the files, right click, and select the "Set Permissions..." option. You want it to be 644, or owner read and write, User/Group read, everyone read.

When I try to do what you suggest, I get this error: "setting access properties failed for: public_html/E-portfolio".

Try setting the permissions for just the folder called E-portfolio.
If you get an error, you may need to re-upload a copy of that folder.
If you have a local copy, open it up and make sure you can test it in a browser
locally. Then before you upload it again, delete the old copy from the server.
If it says you do not have permission to delete it, try changing the permissions to
All read, All write, All execute. (Make sure you have only the E portfolio folder selected) Then try to delete it again. Once it is deleted from the server, re-upload it from your local copy and then check the permissions.
