Forbidden error setting up a PHP app on Mac OS X 10.6 I have enabled Web Sharing in OS X 10.6 and now I can access http://localhost/~myuser from the browser.

Now I have copied this PHP app to my ~/Sites/the_app folder, but when I want to access it in the browser I get a Forbidden error message:


  You don't have permission to access /~myuser/the_app on this server.


Any ideas how can I fix this?
Try to chmod 755 the folder and all of its parent folders.
