Hello,

I warn you, i'm a total newbie, and even the drupal issue report system is too complicated for me. It's very likely that this report don't give enough information.

I wanted to install drupal-cms on my local machine, so i downloaded the archive, and followed the instructions. But something happened: it was unable to download some components because of a too long connection delay. So i wanted to reinstall it from scratch, it seemed to work because it said me to go to https://drupal-cms.ddev.site/, but my hopes vanished when i only saw an HTTP 403 error.

Voilà. I don't really know wich information i have to give to make you able to help me, so feel free to say wich ones are missing and how to retrieve them.

Thanks in advance.

"Hey, I ran into a similar issue before, and in my case, it was related to DDEV's docroot configuration. Could you check your .ddev/config.yaml file and make sure docroot is set correctly? For a standard Drupal setup, it should be docroot: web. If it's misconfigured, the web server might not be able to locate index.php, causing a 403 error.

Also, after making any changes, try running ddev restart to apply them. If that doesn’t help, could you confirm whether your web directory (or the appropriate docroot) actually contains index.php? That file is essential for serving Drupal.

If the issue persists, you might want to check out the DDEV troubleshooting guide (https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/usage/troubleshooting/)

The HTTP 403 error indicates that an authorization problem is preventing access to the requested page. This could be related to several factors in your configuration, including machine access permissions, or a configuration issue with your local server.
