I have looked at every tutorial and forum note, but cannot solve this problem!

My website (photoblog) domain is: http://www.candacedenise.com (which already had a 403 error message before installing pixelpost)

After completing installation, I was able to go to my administration page, which I am currently on now. However, when I go to my website (candacedenise.com), I get this:


403 Forbidden

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

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) Server at candacedenise.com Port 80


I think the problem is between my database or location of files. My database host, user name, and database user password is correct, but I'm not sure if the database is. I already had a Mysql and phpMyAdmin setup, but according to the installation documentation, I needed to create a new database, which I called "pixelpost." I used "pixelpost" as the database name when I did the installation and changed in in the php file.

After successfully logging into my administration page, I noticed that it said :
http://candacedenise.com/pixelpost/admin/index.php/

When I go to: http://candacedenise.com/pixelpost/, I get the following message:
Coming Soon! Nothing to show. No image to show here or they are set to show in future!


I want my photoblog to be on "http://candacedenise.com/," not "http://candacedenise.com/pixelpost/."

What do I need to do????

Seems like you were able to sort everything out. http://www.candacedenise.com loads fine for me :)

i'm having this problem aswell, after the settings step of the install (where i enter the title and timezone) i get a 403 Forbidden error after hitting proceed.

You don't have permission to access /admin/install.php on this server.

if i try to access my admin panel or restart the installation i get an internal server error.

i have no idea what's going wrong, i've tried changing permissions of the admin and includes folders but to no avail.

server details are as follows:

cPanel Version 11.24.4-RELEASE
cPanel Build 35075
Apache version 1.3.41 (Unix)
PHP version 5.2.5
MySQL version 5.0.67-community
