I have a PHP file. In this I have created a button. when this button is pressed it directs to a PHP block where I have only inserted an ECHO statement. But when I pressed the button I get below error.

Quote--- Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /Health_1st/> on this server.

Apache/2.4.9 (Win32) PHP/5.5.12 Server at localhost Port 80 Un-Quote---

"Health_1st" is the folder that the files are saved (in wamp/www/)

Please help to get this solved

  • This sounds like either permission problem, or an apache virtual server issue. You should post the echo code, otherwise this will be hard to determine. – iGNEOS May 15 '16 at 07:40
  • The link is
    , the echo code is echo "user_name";

  • yes. I have inserted "ECHO" statement just to see whether the posting is done correctly – Dhevapriya May 15 '16 at 08:05

  • The lack of information here makes it hard to understand things. You have a forbidden message. Sooo, give the directories full permissions (chmod 0777) in windows right click root directory, and uncheck read-only and hit apply. you could try moving the health directory to be in the same place. Also, if your pointing the form to a directory with an index file, try pointing to the file directly, some setups dont have index set for directories, and forbidden is cause directory services is disabled. – iGNEOS May 15 '16 at 08:15

The directory index is not set, or the server has been installed in a restricted directory like program files.

Try reinstalling wamp to a new directory, OR try an alternative wamp package Like xampp (for windows)
