Hi, I installed apache and the rest for ubuntu 10.4 on linode, but now when I go to a site that I created I get this error:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /site on this server.
Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at "IP" Port 80

Opening the error log I get this:
[Wed Jul 28 02:31:13 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /var/www/site


Where did I go wrong? :cry:

Thanks

Does /var/www/site exist, and is it not a symbolic link?

Either

a) The symlink is broken

b) The apache user doesn't have access to the directory

c) You've not enabled apache's FollowSymLinks directive
