Joomla! 403 error on SOME front-end pages - joomla

When I try to access two of my client's categories I get a "403 Forbidden" message. I searched SO and Joomla!'s official forums for an answer but so far I couldn't find anything related to the front end, only to some admin functions. I downloaded the site and the pages that weren't working on the server are working ok on my localhost. If I go to Directory Permissions in Joomla!'s backend it displays a red box saying "Unwritable" next to the Log and Temp directories. Checked on my host and they both have 755. What access should they have? Could it be some other problem?
Edit:
I managed to make those folders writable, apparently the problem was in the configuration.php script.
public $log_path = '../logs';
public $tmp_path = '../tmp';
This was the correct way they should haved been written. This still doesn't fix my problem so any help is still appreciated.
Thank you :)

I can't offer a solution sadly but I have the same problem. I've searched for days for a solution and am at a loss. I upgraded to Joomla 3.4.0 although problem existed before the upgrade.
Mine only happens when attempting to edit certain articles from the front-end. I've checked ACL and User has Publisher privileges and can successfully edit some pages but others cause 403 Forbidden after attempting to save changes even though they have the same category.
I tried replacing the article with a duplicate and gave it a different alias but it still wouldn't allow edits.
Have you checked the content > category manager > permissions for that user group on the problem category?

Magento /admin panel doesn't work

After I copied my magento installation on a new domain. The admin panel doesn't work. I checked the .htaccess, baseurls and tried a lot of other things, still the 404 error page.
The version of my installion is 1.9.
Please follow the following step.
delete cache folder from var
if you domain name changed then open your database and select core_config_data and set secure and insecure web url to your domain specific url
if you have still further problem for css and js and you have to make merge css and js flag to 0 which is also found in core_config_data
Thanks,
Sam
I hope sagar helped you to get rid of the problem.
to my opinion this issue happens due to improper setup of the core stores in magento.
what I did to resolve the issue to check the core_store tables. Check if store admin is active.
Make it active and your 404 problem will go away.
Thanks me later !!!

Error empty response when logging in magento admin

I really stuck on this issue, everytime i log in into magento admin, it's give me an ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE on google chrome and Connection reset on Mozilla.
The shop is still accessable, but it's load very slowly. It's working fine before, and suddenly become like this.
I can't find a similiar issue like this, mostly are the shop that return an empty response and they still can access the admin page and it's caused of enabling flat category/products set up.
I'm not sure if client enabling the flat category/products. If it so, what table should i edit using phpmyadmin?
since i can't access the admin page, or there are another thing that cause this? some error code, some files missing in admin directory or htaccess thing, actually i'm not doing changes on htaccess before. Really need your help.
Restarting apache and mysql worked for me
service httpd restart
service mysqld restart
Hope this helps.

blank page when loging in to backend part to magento

I recently updated all of my features in Magento from 1.8 to 1.8.1 and after that I’m having problems to log in to the admin dashboard. If i go to “www.example.com/admin” i get a 500 Internal Server Error error and was googling around i wasn’t able to find a solution.
Then i noticed i can go to “www.example.com/index.php/admin” and then all it returns is a blank page. And after hosting the log in page locally sending the right information to the original hosting service i get logged in, but the dashboard is totally blank.
I’ve tried all of the mighty google advises I’ve found, for example, clearing catch, changing permission to folders, looking in log-files for solutions, changing in the .htaccess, etc. But still haven’t found out what the problem is. Anyone had the same problem and maybe has a solution or advice?
Thanks in advance!

Redirect to Zencart showing 403 error

I am using both Chrome and Firefox to visit Zencart website but in return I am getting error like this
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Can someone tell me where I am doing wrong? Any help and suggestions will be appreciable.
I thought I would try and help you since no-one else has... though I guess the reason no-one else has is because of so little info in your question. I'll assume this is happening in every browser since it seems to be a server issue. First step in resolving this is to check you have the correct file permissions for the varios directories. Check this guide for details:
http://www.zen-cart.com/content.php?51-how-do-i-set-permissions-on-files-folders
If all is OK there, then it is probably one of two things, either a server config issue... do you have an htaccess in the root of your site that is restricting access?
Secondly, it may be a corrupt file in there somewhere, try deleting everything and downloading zen cart again.
You havent said here if this is a new installation, if so the last solution above may be your best option. If not, then I will try to help further if you can post server logs and give some more details of what is happening, what you have done, what kind of server you are hosting on etc.
If its a developed site and you dont have a backup then you sir are a silly bear and should look into some sort of version control such as bitbucket for your future projects.
Finally, although I would post some more details here and try again to get some help, there are not many people looking at zen cart on this site so it may be worth trying the zen cart help forums. http://www.zen-cart.com/forum.php
Hope this helps.

403 Forbidden Joomla Article with link

I have a site in joomla which works fine on local setup as well as stating but there is a problem on live. Whenever I add a link to an article (from administrator) and try to save the article it gives "4030 Forbidden Access to this resource on the server is denied!" error. I know its rights issue but exactly what sort of rights? I can even access the link to the image I am putting in article directly so there shouldn't be an access issue but there is.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
