Error: "You Don't Have Permission to access ..."

I have not used Uniform Server in a while. I am presently using PHP Version 5.6.19.

 

I have defined a "<Virtual Host>" with the name, "laptop-test-server". It appears to be properly recognized.

 

If I then open a PHP file on the test server with the URL "laptop-test-server/include/somePHPfile.php", I get the following error message:

 

 

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /include/somePHPfile.php

 

 

But if I open that same PHP file on the test server with the URL "localhost/include/somePHPfile.php", it works fine.

 

Similarly, if I open it with the URL "127.0.0.1/include/somePHPfile.php", it also works fine.

 

Can someone point me in the direction to fix this problem?

 

Thanks much.

My son came up with the solution.

 

In the 'hosts' file, I needed to have on one line the following:

 

127.0.0.1 localhost laptop-test-server

 

Previously, I had them on separate lines. To be honest, I don't know why it worked when I put them all on one line, but the bottom line is that that's how I got it to work.
