[support] Problem with running Drupal 7 on Addon domain

[Jamie Holly]

Quick check for this is to see if you can access 
http://mydomain.com/update.php. If that gives the 403 then it's a 
permission problem on the file system, or Apache problem (contact your 
hosting support). If it gives you a 404, then what Dave said about the 
code not being in htdoc root.
