Including files results in 403 – General Web Dev – SitePoint Forums

Hi there everyone,

I’m trying to move my template over to my server and I’m having a problem with including the files in the template(css and js). For some reason, it’s resulting in a 403 error for both files. I’ve checked permissions and ownership and they show as correct.

This file system is mounted as a network drive on my computer and I can open these files to edit, they are not corrupt or unreadable.

Can someone tell me what I’m getting wrong?

My files:
