Tim:
Check the permissions on the drupal folder in the path that you've installed it. If it's not owned by the apache2 (www-data) user then it should be. I use Ubuntu, and apache2 runs as www-data. I'm not sure what it runs as on RHEL. On my intranet server I've changed the permissions to be myuser:www-data, i.e. I own the file, and so does the www-data group. I selectively enable write permissions for the group, when doing installs and such. Let me know if this helps.
BTW: Why RHEL vs Fedora?

Hello,
I'm pretty new to this, so, this may be a dumb question. I cannot get to the index.php page to finish my install.
I am trying to install Drupal 6.6 on RHEL 4. I have Apache 2.2, PHP 4.3.9 and MYSQL 5. I have verified that Apache, PHP and MYSQL are all running.
index.php is in: /var/www/html/drupal
I am trying to set up Drupal to run on my intranet. Once I go to http://localhost/drupal/index.php , I see this error in my browser:
Forbidden You don't have permission to access /drupal/index.php on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.Any ideas? I've verified that that the directory is owned by the same user that is running the webserver.
Thanks, Tim
