File Vault: You don't have permission to access /~anybody/ on this server.

I tried it on several machines without success:
403 Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /~anybody/ on this server.
Apache/1.3.33 Server at localhost.local Port 80
I can reach the main site on the computer but not the user site if user was setup with File Fault.
I did control permissions and tried this issue on other machines with clean installed 10.4.x
:::[Wed Apr 4 13:19:17 2007] [error] [client 192.168.0.10] (13)Permission denied: access to /~anybody/ failed because search permissions are missing on a component of the path:::
NO SOLUTION. IS THIS A BUG?

If I log in to a FileVault user's account, change the group of that user's home folder to "www" and allow group "---x" permissions, it is possible, from another account, to access "http://127.0.0.1/~filevaultuser". I'm not in a situation where I can test access from a different machine, and my system is PPC, not Intel, but I don't think that should matter. I'm not sure why it is not working for you.
Note that for it to work requires that the user is logged in (otherwise, because of how FileVault works, the "~/Sites" folder doesn't exist), and the permissions along the path "/Users/filevaultuser/Sites" have to allow "www" access. If the user is not logged in, access may fail for a couple of reasons. First, because the "Shared" folder doesn't exist - the home folder is encrypted - leading to a 404 error. Second, the permissions of "/Users/filevaultuser" may be "drwx------" by default (access only for the owner), leading to a permissions error.
It might help to recall that when a FileVault user's home folder is stored in an encrypted disk image "/Users/filevaultuser/filevaultuser.sparseimage", and when they log in, "/Users/filevaultuser" is moved to "/Users/.filevaultuser", and "/Users/.filevaultuser/filevaultuser.sparseimage" is mounted at "/Users/filevaultuser". I.e. the path "/Users/filevaultuser" refers to two different folders depending on whether or not the user is logged in.
..."it writes that if I'm looged in as the user which is using File Vault it should work - but it doesn't."...
I think that statement refers to 10.3 - lower in the article, it says that for Tiger, the "Public" folder won't be visible after logging in. It could also be referring to some changes made to personal file sharing that were made between 10.3 and 10.4, rather than a filevault specific issue.
Just to reiterate, I don't think enabling web sharing for a user that needs the security of FileVault is really a good idea. It might be better to give that user a second non-FileVault account, where they can place their materials. That way, the homepage would be available even if they are logged out.

    It does not happen all the time, but it happened today about 5 times. I finally had to use Safari to get online and get back to Firefox.
    I never know when I shut down if it will happen when I reboot and try to get online again. This morning was particularly distressing, since it used to happen once, and then I would quit and restart Firefox and it worked. Today it did not work. What can I do to fix this? Thank you

    It installed without an error and it's running, I can see it using ps aux.

    I checked the userdb.txt, it's in the right possition and it contains:

    Hi !
    Under Debian it works perfectly if you add the same lines into +/etc/apache2/sites-available/default+ file between the <VirtualHost *:80></VirtualHost>
    tags.
    Maybe it could work as well under Red Hat.

  • After logging into facebook, I get an "access denied" message. It says I don't have permission to access facebook on this server but this is my home computer.

    Recently I've had trouble either when I try to login to facebook or after I've logged in. Usually, it's a page that says "access denied" and follows with a statement similar to not having permission to access facebook on this server. It doesn't happen every time but when it does I try various ways to get back to my facebook page...usually I can google facebook and login that way. Today it won't let me do that either. Does anyone know what this means? I don't know hardly a thing about computer technology so I don't even know where to start. Thanks!

    .usually I can google facebook and login that way.
    Create a Bookmark for Facebook. Don't go via Google.
    If you are using Safari... go to the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Security tab.
    Click: Show Cookies
    Delete all Facebook cookies.
    Now from the menu bar again click Safari / Empty Cache.
    Restart your Mac, launch Safari, try Facebook.
    If you still have problems, quit Safari.
    Open Keychain Access  /Applications/Utilities
    Select Passwords on the left.
    Delete the Facebook and Safari Forms Autofill keychains. Now go to the menu bar top of your screen click Keychain Access / Keychain First Aid. Enter your admin password on the left then click Verify and Repair if necessary.
    Relaunch Safari. Go to Facebook. Login with your user name and password. You should be prompted to save that data to a new keychain. Click Yes.

  • Can't move any files... "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items."

    This is a strange one... I just recently did a complete format/reinstall of Lion because of very poor performance after upgrading.
    So I'm on a totally fresh system, no TimeMachine restore or anything. I've installed all my apps from scratch - no prefrence file backups or anything. Everything is fresh.
    Yesterday I tried to copy a file from one folder to another and I got the error "The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items". Checked file permissions... repaired disk permissions... made sure I was logged in as admin (I only have one account)... everything looks good.
    This is now happening when trying to copy any files anywhere on my machine... Very frustrating.
    There's a couple strange side-effects I've noticed:
    - I can move & copy files just fine in terminal... without sudo...
    - The little lock icon in the bottom right of the Get Info window doesn't do anything - I can't unlock it. I can still edit the permissions for the file/folder but I can't select the "apply to enclosed items..." option.
    Does anybody know what the heck is going on?

    jsd2 wrote:
    Try creating a new admin user account, logging into it, and then creating some new items on the Desktop and elsewhere. Does the same thing happen there?
    Ok the strangeness continues!
    I created a new "TestAdmin" account, but it doesn't show up in the Users & Groups prefrences sidebar... The /Users/testadmin folder was created, but the account doesn't show up in the prefrences or login window...
    I tried a reboot to see if the account would show up and it still doesnt.... However after the reboot I am now able to copy files again!
    I'm paranoid that the problem will show up again since I have no idea what fixed it. I tried rebooting previously after repairing permissions which didn't solve the issue so it's not like I haven't rebooted since it started.
    And now I have the issue of not being able to create user accounts.
    A little dissapointed with Lion to be honest... the new features are cool but there are so many little bugs it really feels half-baked.

  • The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items. ive moved these files from my sd card to the trash, when i take out the sd card the trash empties but then fills up when i put it back in, it wont empty.

    In the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-C, or select

    from the menu bar. A window will open showing all mounted volumes. Select the one in question and open the Info window. What is shown as the Format in the General section?

  • The File could not be found or you don't have permission to access it.

    I teach Acrobat in a junior college. For an assignment students are to share an Acrobat portfolio file via Acrobat.com. So far two students have attempted to do that, I have clicked the link in the email message generated by Acrobat.com, and in each instance the error message in this discussion heading appeared.

    Michelle,
    I don't sign in. The moment Acrobat.com opens, it displays the error
    message, "The File could not be found or you don't have permission to
    access it." So, I'm guessing that the automatic sign-in email address is
    different than the one used when sending me a shared file notice.
    People use Acrobat.com to share files with individuals, most of whom
    don't have Acrobat.com IDs. Those non-members gain access smoothly.
    There shouldn't be a bouncer at the door to refuse entry to those who
    have Acrobat.com IDs but who happen to have multiple email addresses.
    You need to simply allow entry to all persons receiving invitations to
    download files whether or not they have an Acrobat.com ID.

    How do I solve this?

    is the file faded and unable to be opened? i was transferring files from an old external hard drive to a time capsule, it stopped half way through and now refuses to delete the interupted folder because i dont have the correct permissions.

  • Can't save multiple folders to external drive. Get: "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items." when dragging large folders to mac os extended journalled external drive from OS 10.6.8

    Hi
    I am feeling  VERY desperate!
    After losing an external drive [dont ask....]  -   I got  another one :  2TB WD formatted properly [ OS extended journalled for mac ] ready for action to move  my thousands of files and images and ppts in hundreds of folders across from the laptop to this drive because I travel a bit with the laptop and this is too risky not to back up at home.
    But this message came up after starting on moving folders across [** and not straight away, sometimes after moving  a folder  when  4 of 6 gb of files across  then the message comes up  = very frustrating]:
    "The operation can’t be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items."
    I am  dragging mixed sometimes large complex folders to this  os extended journalled external drive from my mac book pro OS 10.6.8  - it would take decades to move items one by one or even folder by folder and really confusing. 
    I have  dragged-copied  various small folders and files across successfully, but it is only working 50:50 and I can't leave machine with the idea of things copying eg: overnight - it just won't work....
    I have been browsing google and find some people describing in CODE how they overcome this 'message'   .... but  I  [and I guess some other viewers of this in future & also in desperation]  would need  instructions for beginners....  to try this type of thing.  I don't know any code.
    How can this be happening - I feel ANGRY at APPLE !!!!  for not posting easy fix instructions yet re; this, or better still  updating software so it doesn't happen [ that I can find at least  !!! ] .   There seem to be hundreds of people stuck with this stupid message and inability to back up their projects etc.
    Can anyone help ?
    Many thanks

    hi Samberl
    thanks a lot for the fast reply.
    I was dragging folders from main folders on the laptop-desktop  onto the external drive icon - to copy them across....
    Your suggestion sounds very promising -  I didn't know about 'cloning'.
    Yes the idea is to backup the laptop -    I thought I would just move it all now, new - and then keep saving/dragging physically   across to the new drive myself each day or two...
    Would this be the sizeof the internal hard drive = c.500 gb  ?   =   under the HD icon on desktop is written  : 
    " 499.76gb , 311.5 gb free  " 
    I can erase and start agin on the new external drive - so this plan is to make two partititions, rather than the one at present, and make one of them 500 gb ?
    I have found CCC [carbon copy cloner] googling - looks good.
    When CCC site says it backs up  the hard drive - would this  mean all my files  [over 100 gb] that are mostly  in folders on the desktop, plus the others in itunes, iphotos etc found in the HD icon,  would all copy across successfully [wherever they are in the computer ]  ?
    thanks again, hope you can clarify these things and then I will go for it. 
    It would be great and amazing if this 'lack of permission' message doesn't show up in the process of doing this ccc transfer - hopeful!

    Yes- it is a Mac. I went through adobes system requirements and re- downloaded supportive software. The notice seems to happen near the end of the down load with the messages above. I'll look into your suggestion. Thank you- appreciated.

  • Forbidden  You don't have permission to access / virtualhostname / filename .html on this server.

    Hello Everyone
    I've just configured Apache on my Newly upgraded Mountain Lion on Macbook Pro 13.
    Steps i followed to activate apache, php and mysql on my macbook pro is as follows:
    http://coolestguyplanettech.com/downtown/install-and-configure-apache-mysql-php- and-phpmyadmin-osx-108-mountain-lion
    I've configured the Sites folder and tested the http://localhost and find it working.
    I created one file to test php configurations and found that they are also working perfectly.
    Now i m creating a virtualhost with the name "rishtey.local" in  /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf as below:
    <VirtualHost *:80>
        DocumentRoot "/Users/YogeshMunjal/Sites/Matrimonial/"
        ServerName rishtey.local
    </VirtualHost>
    But whenever i try to access the virutal directory as: http://localhost/rishtey.local
    it gives me following error:
    Forbidden
    You don't have permission to access /Rishtey.local/default_1.html on this server.
    No matter if i am accessing php file or html file, error is same.
    directory permissions are as below:
    drwxrwxrwx@ 156 YogeshMunjal  staff  5304 Dec 14 02:51 Matrimonial
    have created httpd.conf file as well in the same directory as:
    <Directory />
            Options FollowSymLinks
            AllowOverride All
            Order allow, deny
            Allow from all
    </Directory>
    Still nothing is working at all. please suggest the possible solution with it.
    Thanks in advance for trying...

    oh yes.. you are right... its accessible in
    http:://rishtey.local/default_1.html
    successfully... thanks for that... first of all
    now issue is: when i access http://rishtey.local/test.php which contains just a tag to display php info only...
    instead of rendering this php file, it just save the file in the download folder.
    what could be the issue with it?

    hello,
    In one of my page regions (a region used as a menu),
    in the source of the region,
    I have created a javascript function(GoWindow).
    <table border="0"><tr><td class=tdbutonclass>
    <a class="butonclass"
    href="GoWindow('120','P10_ID')">
    AAAAA
    </a></td></tr></table>
    I got the following mesage when clicking on the buton :
    You don't have permission to access /pls/htmldb/GoWindow('120','P10_ID') on this server.
    Any idea for this error ??

    fil sam,
    Try:
    <a class="butonclass" href="javascript:GoWindow('120','P10_ID')">AAAAA</a>
    Because you are not preceding this with 'javascript:', it's being treated as a URL. And because it's not a fully qualified URL, it's assumed to be a relative URL (hence the reason why it's trying to access /pls/htmldb/...).

  • You don't have permission to access ** on the server, HELP please

    For the last months I've been working with Muse and updating my website through Muse without any problems.
    I use my extern HTML for update pages in Muse, and usually this went without any problems too.
    But if I test my new update, when I want to download a specific clip, it says: "You don't have permission to access ** on this server."
    The files are in the correct place on my FTP, the link is correct and when I open the specific link in my browser without using my website, I CAN download the file.
    How is it possible that this suddenly doesn't work anymore? Last time I updated this way was one week ago - without any problems.
    Can anyone help, seeing I have done everything I usually do, and everything is in the correct place and the link does work.
    Thanks

    In my case I have to close/quit Muse. Then re-open the program. For me the problem goes away. This only happens occasionally.
