Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on this
İ go to site>>>template manager>>>site templates and try to EDİT HTML source.
when I hit SAVE button I get this error message
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.37 Server at http://www.xxxxx.com Port 80
I use joomla 1011 . fresh installed.. SEF is closed. mambot patch is done.
Joomla! RG_EMULATION setting is `ON` instead of `OFF` in file globals.php ( I use joomlaboard forum)
Am I doing something wrong or this is from joomla 1011 bug??

I am having the same problem now. Earlier today everything was fine. I only updated the eWriting component. Now I get the same error message as mamboturk.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on t
This problem is not letting me continue doing changes on my template, same as you guys. Has anyone found the solution?
Everything was working fine and suddenly this thing happened. Any solution is really appreciated.

I am afraid no one came up with a solution other than restoring a backup of the site. So that is what I did.

You have safe mode turned ON, which is preventing editing the file. turn it off or chown the file to your apache user.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on t
I had the same problem with Joomla 1.0.11. Everything worked great, even editing the configuration file, but I simply couldn't save or cancel out of editing the templates without generating a Forbidden error message.
It turned out that my hosting provider uses mod_security to protect the web server. One of the rules looks for the string "mosConfig_absolute_path" and to return a Forbidden error. This was added as a result of a rash of server incursions due to Joomla's old security problems a couple months ago.
That string shows up in the template's index.php, of course. So, I edited the template and replaced the php code that inserts the absolute path with a hard-coded path. It now works beautifully.
For example, I found the following near the bottom of the madeyourweb sample template:
I changed it to
and now I can edit at will.
Hope this helps somebody else.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on t
I've just been dealing with this same problem on a clean install of 1.0.12.
The problem was not PHP Safe Mode. mod_security was the right clue, but changing the template index.php wasn't the solution for me. I was having problems with the rhuk_solarflare_ii template, not madeyourweb, and replacing $mosConfig_absolute_path did not help.
However I was able to disable mod_security from my host's (Server Logistics) site control panel by adding:
SecFilterEngine Off
to the configuration file.
Also see the following:
http://modsecurity.org/documentation/mo ... tml#N10152
Whether disabling mod_security is a good idea in general is a separate question, but it has solved my immediate problem.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on t
I have not looked at this in a while, but I recall being able to set a SecFilter setting in my .htaccess that displayed the error message someplace that I could view (like /tmp/mysecoutput), then I did whatever generated the error, then read the output to determine the string that caused the issue.
You might try this in your htaccess:
SecFilterDebugLog /tmp/whatsmyloginid.myoutput #just make sure the file name isn't already being used
Then, run the program or script to cause the failure, then examine the debug log output (found in /tmp/whatsmyloginid.myoutput). If that doesn't work, then perhaps you can ask your hosting provider to tell you where the default SecFilterDebugLog is pointing and to let you know what is being recorded (if you can't view it yourself).
The general idea is that mod_security is catching something in the script that is probably harmless, and all you need to know is the string it doesn't like so you can make the necessary change in order to keep the security turned on. Good luck!

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator/index2.php on this
the problem for me was that the template I was trying to upload had a TGZ extension, so I extracted it and then zipped it up , uploaded via template installer and it worked.
hope this helps.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator
I've been searching these posts all day looking for a solution and found it on a google search. This worked for me:
Add the following lines to the .htaccess file in public_html.
Add lines to to end of file..
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
I'm no techie, but I've stopped getting that annoying error.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator
Folks, Having an issue with Chronoforms. Set up the form, emails etc. and try to save and then get:
"You don't have permission to access /mysite/administrator/index2.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."
The thing is that the demo form you can install works but when you dare to try to change the look and feel you get the heave-ho and the above permission error message. My host says permissions are fine, no word from Chronoform so I am relying on the good folk of the Joomla forum to help.
its a good looking form tool, now if it just worked!!!
is it a Joomla issue or something else? I have seen comments above ref "SAFE MODE and hta.access. Not exactly the greatest geek folks so if you can keep it simple.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administrator
I have the same problem. None of my images can be accessed. The only things that are displayed are the description of the images. Whenever I tried to open an image, I get the error message "you don't have permission...". I have the .htaccess file with the SEF global setting turned on. I also tried to modify the .htaccess file by adding the lines suggested by jeanw, but neither one worked.
The weird thing about this is that my site has been running fine with all the images properly displayed. I am not sure what happened, but the images just cannot be displayed anymore.
Update: seems like there are many people experiencing this same error message but the situations are somewhat different. I am opening a new thread so as not to distract the current thread. thx.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administr
For me the folder permissions on the public_html folder were causing the issue. They were 744, I changed to 755 and it fixed it.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administr
Another common cause as well as permissions is the ownership of the file. You should chown on your webhost the owner to your webhosting accout, or 'nobody'. Then attempt to chmod with the correct permissions.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administr
That message is a temporary thing. I used sh404sef and a configuration thing caused this problem for me. From sh404sef Configuration >> Security >> and then you can deactivate anti-flood from there, or growing those requests numbers.

Re: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /administr
if you use the Security htaccess or similar to increase the security , add this on the folder /Public_Folder/administrator :
add one file:
.htaccess
edit it and add
RewriteEngine Off
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from YourIP
Allow from 127.0.0.1
Allow from Your IP
( More line if you need )
Save.
in this way , you don't lost security level of your site and you don't receive the error.
