    This is indeed a permissions issue, I have just checked CHMOD is set at 744 for my ‘blog’ folder and this is when I receive the 403 forbidden. If I change it to 755 then I can access the site.

    This seems like a hosting issue but they still haven’t replied.

    Many thinks for your help doodlebee. It was definitely the blog url that I was in the process of changing. However, I’ve taken your advice, deleted htaccess file, no change. I also checked phpMyAdmin and everything is OK in there too, all pointing to the correct place, still no joy.

    I have also been back in touch with the host who is still trying to pull the ‘3rd party software’ trick even though initially they said “That was very strange, indeed. I was accessing everything just fine via SSH but noticed the same problem you had via FTP” and it seems more than just a coincidence that it all happened at the same time.

    What I don’t understand is why I get a 403 forbidden which suggest a permissions issue which obviously I haven’t touched.

    Anyway any other suggestions welcome and thanks again for your help. I can feel a re-install coming on!!

    I’ve deleted the index and the htaccess from the root and uploaded a new empty htaccess file with 666 permissions and the index.php back into the /blog folder. Still I get

    Forbidden

    You don’t have permission to access /blog/ on this server.

    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    Help!

    I think it was the ‘sudden’ atempt to change the the Blog URL combined with the server issue which the ISP has said themselves was ‘strange’

    I now get the same error no matter what page I attempt to access, whether it be

    http://www.deptfordjourneys.com/blog/
    http://www.deptfordjourneys.com or
    http://www.deptfordjourneys.com/blog/wp-login.php

    All the files are in the blog folder and I will happily go back to leaving everything there including the index file.

    Is there a standard .htaccess file I can upload?

    I now get

    Warning: require(./wp-blog-header.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/.marylou/thedolphinsfly/deptfordjourneys.com/index.php on line 4

    Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘./wp-blog-header.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php’) in /home/.marylou/thedolphinsfly/deptfordjourneys.com/index.php on line 4

    I have uploaded and empty .htaccess file but not sure if this is correct
