What is the “nonsense”? It’s more than likely important.
It’s the standard “You don’t have permission to access this page” that the server generates. It doesn’t look like anything Word Press generates.
In that case, try setting the permissions of all your WP files to 755 (CHMOD 755).

Nope – still not working. And for the record, this is all of the information on the error page:
You are not authorized to view this page
You might not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied.
——————————————————————————–
If you believe you should be able to view this directory or page, please try to contact the Web site by using any e-mail address or phone number that may be listed on the http://www.kuenzer.com home page.
You can click Search to look for information on the Internet.
HTTP Error 403 – Forbidden
Internet Explorer
Well, a 403 error is not WP’s fault. It’s either the permissions of the files, the permissions of the directory which they are in, a rogue .htaccess, or your webhost has some internal issues.
The permissions are properly set on the directory. Any tips (or links) on how to take care of a potential “rogue .htaccess” problem? I had the site running fine a couple of weeks ago.
Login via ftp and look for a .htaccess file in either your blog directory, or the directory above it. If you find one, rename it to “htaccess” (without the ‘.’), make a backup copy on your hard disk, and delete the one off of the server. Then, try your site again.
Now I’m just getting the login page with “Your session has expired.” every time I try to log in.
Did you delete a .htaccess file? Where was it?
In the root directory of my site, oddly enough.
After creating a number of databases, countless alterations to the wp-config.php file, deleting the .htaccess file, changing ‘localhost’ to my domain, saying a few dozen prayers, deleting cookies, setting the appropriate permissions to the appropriate directories and foregoing prayer in favor of hurling objects about the room, I am up and at ’em.
Much thanks macmanx for your assistance and patience.
