403 Forbidden

  • There’s no index.php or index.html in public_html.
  • Incorrect file and folder permissions (folders 755, files 644).
  • There’s an access block (Deny from all) in .htaccess.

404 Not Found

  • The file was uploaded to the wrong folder or has a different name (Linux is case-sensitive: Logo.png ≠ logo.png).
  • If WordPress inner pages return 404: click “Save” under Settings → Permalinks.
  • The .htaccess file was deleted — restore your CMS’s default .htaccess.
