 * Thank you, you are right!
    Suddenly and without detectable reason, any access
   to some files of my self-hosted WordPress installation causes 403 errors. One
   of these files is wp-login.php.
 * If Force Login is activated, all requests are redirected to wp-login.php and 
   result in an 403 error. Deactivating Force Login seems to solve the problem, 
   but acutally it doesn‘t, it just avoids the requests to wp-login.php.
 * The reasons which are responsible for the 403 errors are unknown. It is neither
   the .htacess file nor the access rights. I did not change anything – despite 
   the WordPress update a few hours before. I tried for hours without success. Many
   things work fine, sometimes things result in 403.
 * My installation is self-hosted and i have more WordPress installations: no problems
   with these. The solution comes on the same way, as the problem raises: I stopped
   my work and went to bed. The next day, everthing was fine again, suddenly and
   without detectable reason.
 * I found several posts, where people decribe comparable experiences. My advice:
   if everything fails, go to bed and hope for tomorrow.
 * Thank you again!
