403 Forbidden

Seit gestern gegen 15 Uhr sah meine Website für alle Besucher so aus:

Screenshot

Bis heute 17 Uhr hat sich das Bild nicht verändert. Wodurch auch immer, was er verboten auf die Seite zuzugreifen. Der Support meines Webhosters war auch sehr ratlos und hat es erst nach 6 Anfragen geschafft das Problem zu beseitigen. Man riet mir dort ernsthaft eine Datei namens index.html im Hauptverzeichnis abzulegen. Für die Interessierten hab ich das ganze mal kopiert und hier eingefügt. Ich bin im folgenden innovativen Support-Chat „you“. Ausserdem habe ich einige Zeilen kommentiert. Fehler im englischen sind äh natürlich extra gemacht worden.
Los gehts am Montag 27.11.2006 so gegen 16/17 Uhr:

Chat InformationYou are now chatting with ‚XXX‘
XXX: Thank you for using One.com 24/7 Interactive Online Support. My name is XXX. How may I assist you?
you: Hi, I got a problem. I have no access to the server.
XXX: May I know your domain name please?
you: FTP access is possible
you: www.daburna.de
you: I think 1 or 2 hours ago, it was pssible to access with browser
XXX: The index file should be placed in the ‚root directory‘.The root is the directory which you first come to when using an FTP client. The index file is the file which is displayed when you enter your domain address in a web browser
you: Yes, I got an index file. it is called index.shtml
XXX: no
XXX: it has to be index.html index.php index.htm or index.asp
you: But it worked with index.shtml for 2 years!
you: …but ok, I´ll test it and will upload now a index.html without „s“
XXX: yes
XXX: it should work
you: and…tata…it did not work
XXX: why?
you: I dont know. I only got the message, „403 Forbidden“: You don’t have permission to access / on this server.
XXX: please try using the file manager
you: Sorry, but I got only Linux and no Internet Explorer, so the file manager does not work
XXX: try using any ftp program then
you: Ok, I tried it with my ftp programm. I uploaded an index.html file. I deleted index.shtml. But the problem is still there.
XXX: tis strange
XXX: make sure the file you are uploading is the right index.html file
XXX: try to rename the first file diferently
you: well I think it is NOT a problem with the index file. I even could not access to my pictures
XXX: the browser you are using may cause you this
you: ok… < - Alles klar mein Browser wäre als schuld! An dieser Stelle reicht es mir
you: bye

you: Oh, sorry, do you know the problem?
ABC: yes, you are using SSI?
you: yes
you: and it worked the last 2 years at b-one or now only ONE
ABC: If that is the case the file that you include via SSI needs to be named .htm and the file which include the file needs to be named .shtml < - ...das weiß ich auch! Hat ja auch jahrelang ohne Probleme funktioniert!
you: but today, I got only 403 forbidden errors
you: yes
you: and I had an index.shtml in my directory
you: XXX said, that I have to upload a new index.html file. It did not work
ABC: Do you still have your old index file?
you: yes
you: but why did everybody think, that it is a problem with the index file? I could still not access to my pictures.
you: every file a 403 forbidden file
ABC: Hold on please
you: ok
you: perhaps my account is blocked, but I don´t know why.
ABC: I have refreshed your domain name, then allow a couple of hours. If it still does not work, you will need to send an email to suport@no.one.com so we can forward your case to our technical department
you: ok
you: thanks
ABC: You are welcome.
ABC: Please feel free to contact us again for any further assistance. Good Bye and have a nice time.

Chat InformationWarten Sie bitte bis ein Operateur antwortet.
Chat InformationSie reden jetzt mit ‚XYZ‘
XYZ: Hallo, willkommen beim one.com-chat. Wie kann ich Ihnen helfen?
Du: Hallo XYZ, ich hab ein problem mit meiner Domain www.daburna.de.
XYZ: ja
Du: Ich habe an dem Code nichts geändert, aber seit gestern nachmittag habe ich immer einen 403 forbidden Fehler.
Du: So, euer support hat gesagt, es läge an meiner index.html Datei
Du: Ich hab das jetzt entsprechend euren Anweisungen geändert.
Du: Aber es funktioniert trotzdem nicht
Du: Ausserdem müsste ich trotz fehlerhafter inde.html doch trotzdem auf andere Dateien wie z.B. Bilder zugreifen können oder?
XYZ: Sie müssen eventuell ein paar minuten warten, bis die ÄNderungen in Kraft treten
XYZ: wir können leider keinen Support hinsichtlich Scripts, Programmierung u.ä. anbieten < - Danke für die Standardantwort!
Du: Ja, klar
Du: Ich habe aber definitiv nichts an dem Code verändert.
Du: Seit gestern nachmittag funktioniert das auf einmal nicht mehr
XYZ: wenn Ihre Indexdatei fehlerhaft ist, können auch die anderen Dateien nicht auf der Seite gezeigt werden
XYZ: wir haben keine Änderungen an Ihrer Seite vorgenommen
Du: ja….aber mit fehlender Index.html, wird doch sonst die Standard Datei, die b-one-default.html angezeigt.
XYZ: nicht, wenn Sie eine fehlerhafte Indexdatei haben
XYZ: die Indexdatei ist case-sensitive und darf deshalb nur Kleinbuchstaben enthalten
Du: ja das hat sie
XYZ: wir können Ihnen wie gesagt leider nicht mit Programmierung und Scripts helfen < - Schiebt das Problem nur zu mir!
XYZ: Sie können evebtuell Hilfe in einem Computerforum finden
Du: Ok, super. Wenn ich was verändert hätte, wäre ich mir ja auch einer Schuld bewusst. Aber so, weiß ich nicht, woher das aufeinmal kommt.
Du: Ich werd jetzt meinen ganzen Webspace runterladen und löschen.
Du: Dann eine „reine“ index datei hochladen
Du: wenn das dann nicht funktioniert, meld ich mich wieder
XYZ: viel Erfolg mit Ihrer Seite
Du: ja danke
XYZ: Vielen Dank, dass Sie den one.com Chatsupport benutzt haben. Sie können uns bei weiteren Fragen gerne erneut kontaktieren. Ich wünsche Ihnen einen schönen Tag.

    1. Tja mit Leuten vom Support kann man sich schon ewig rumärgern. Ich hoffe sowas kommt nicht mehr vor. Ansonsten wäre ich ganz dankbar über einen vernünftigen neuen Hoster.

  1. Köstlich.
    Der Name „Support“ hat hier wohl seine Aufgabe verfehlt. Mein Beileid, aber amüsant wars allemal!
