    apache Error
AI Thread Summary
A web server may display a "forbidden" error when access to a webpage is restricted due to file permissions. This often occurs when FTP software alters the permissions, limiting access to the file for the user and group members only, rather than allowing public access. To resolve this issue, it's essential to check and adjust the file permissions to ensure that everyone has the necessary read access. Forbidden errors are commonly linked to these permission settings.

Yes, whenever you get a forbidden error or something similar it usually has to do with permissions.

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'

Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
