Error 403 access denied on install

[Johnson, S]

Wow.  I got it to work just by chance, but I still don't know why.
Although, I may have an idea...
 
I replaced the scriptalias and the alias /nagios/ to /monitor/,
restarted apache and walla it worked.
 
Does anyone know why this would matter?
 
 Thanks

I've been struggling with this error for a couple of days.  I've got it
narrowed down to where I think the issue is but it doesn't make any
sense...
 
When I go to the server (http://164.18.32.1/nagios/)I get the following
error message:
 
--------------------------------

Access forbidden!

You don't have permission to access the requested object. It is either
read-protected or not readable by the server.

Error 403

 
--------------------------------
 
In the error log for Apache 2.0 I see the following error:
 
[Wed Aug 18 10:49:56 2004] [error] [client 164.18.32.253] client denied
by server configuration: /usr/share/nagios/
 
The directory that nagios is installed into is /usr/local/nagios
 
I've got the following directives in the httpd.conf file:
 
ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin/ /usr/local/nagios/sbin/
<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin/">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    Options ExecCGI
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
 
Alias /nagios/ /usr/local/nagios/share/
<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/share">
    Options None
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
 
 
Any ideas why apache is pointing to the wrong location?
 
 Thanks.
