I just ran into this today trying to view CakePHP pages. Ends up the .htaccess file needed a few additions (shown in bold), which I took from this local wikka page. Hope this helps, Sincerely, -xs   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>   Options +FollowSymLinks   RewriteEngine on   RewriteBase /currentfolder/   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d   RewriteRule ^(.*/[^\./]*[^/])$ $1/   RewriteRule ^(.*)$ wikka.php?wakka=$1 [QSA,L] < /IfModule>   PS: Searched google for '403 uniform server' to dig up the solution.
