There is a Joomla 1.6. template created with Artisteer. When trying to save a css file of the template (after modification) I get a message

Forbidden  

You don't have permission to access /administrator/index.php on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


Other css files of the other templates in the site can be updated and saved.

Any solution?

Are you running any SEO programs such as ACESEF, Jomsef, etc? If so youll need to disable it. Then edit your .htacess file and look for this line:

#Rewrite Base /

and change it to:

Rewrite Base /

Afterwards your joomla sef/seo settings will work and you don't really need any other SEO/SEF program.

That should fix the 404 Not Found Error.

The access issue youll need to double check your css file to make sure your tags are closed. Then try uploading it via FTP.

I think not. In Global Configuration there is No selected in Use Apache mod_rewrite. htaccess file is not in use, it is htaccess.txt now.

Well, the css file is the original one Artisteer has created.

FTP upload is not the problem, it works well.

You sure that was 404? Sure it wasn't 403?

404 = "File not found"
403 = "Forbidden access"

Two completely different issues.

Sounds like a server issue. Contact your hosting company.
