Hi @ash2!

i modified the httpd.conf

You can’t modify the httpd.conf file on 000webhost. We offer only free shared hosting.

i now get error “403 Forbidden”, may someone please help me .

You have no file/folder named 2 in your website.

https://the-egyptian-musuem.000webhostapp.com/

correct. but it is still not working

#4

Browse your website and press CTRL+F5 for full webpage refresh.

#5

i have done that, but it is not working. i am sorry for disturbance.

#6

You’re seeing that because index.html file from /public_html contains this.

Note that website’s root is /public_html

#7

I see. so what can i do?

#8

You have three folders. In which one is your website content located?

I don’t know what is your intention, what do you want to see when browsing https://the-egyptian-musuem.000webhostapp.com/

I have re-named the index.html Now your website looks as you see it (press CTRL+F5 to see the applied changes). It only displays the three folders because there is no index.html/index.php in /public_html

#9

well most of the contents are in application/views but i also use the styling (css, images…etc) in assets

#10

oh, now it is 404 error, i uploaded the index.php

may you please let me know if i did something wrong?

#11

Whatever you want to be displayed to the browser when clients access your website make sure it is located in /public_html and it is incorporated with a index.php/index.html file.

#12

index.php contains the 404 error text.

No, wait…

#13

ok please take all time you want.

#14

Make sure you upload all website content at once. index.php is part of an entire web application. Please upload the whole application and then try again.

I see you are using Codeigniter. Make sure the paths and everything is setup correctly in the config file.

#15

ok. i uploaded the missing files and even the xampp.conf file

#16

i modified AllowOverride to All

#17

000webhost offers only free shared hosting. Uploading the xampp.conf file will take no effect.

#18

oh ok. so what shall i do now?

#19

There can be dozens of reasons for that error.

Please upload all content of htdocs

#20

ok i am deleting the files and re-uploading them
