Password alteration permissions problem

Tagged:  

Every time I try to change my account's, or any other account's, password, I get this message:

"Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /project/index.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache mod_fcgid/2.3.5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at ______________ Port __"

(The underscores filling in for the domain name and the port number)

This same message comes up each time we try and change anything in our profiles.

I tried changing the permissions of the index.php but I received a perpetual error for any of the pages I tried to go to (quoted below), so I had to reinstall the script again. Even if I changed the permissions back to 644, the same error reoccurred.

"Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@key.venthemiux.org and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

How can I go about making so that I can change my users' passwords? I am using ProjectPier version 0.8.3. Thanks in advance.

The important part of this error message is:

You don't have permission to access /project/index.php on this server

the rest has to do with your server being misconfigured in regard to not being able to display the right error message.

Did you check the php error log? Also, you might try editing /config/config.php and changing the debug line from false to true, after doing this you may get better feedback on the screen as to exactly what the problem is.
