I tried both 777 & 755 as you can see in the attached image of linux command and still none displays.
I don't get it...
Dave, did you something else when you successfully access the index.htm on your web server?

    777 would potentially give you write permissions, and that is not
    needed here.

    755 should be enough (i.e. read access and the right to look into
    the folders)

      Try 777.

        That what you need for a XOT install.

        If that works I think it can be dialed back a bit, but
          check that first.

            I just asked the technician and he just said
              that I should reset the home directory to include global
              execution permission 
              so I typed 

                  chmod 711 ~/public_html
                And again then I tried accessing http://clyde.cs.nott.ac.uk/~sxm20u/hlsTest/index.htm and it still gives me Access Forbidden 403
                :(

                  Hi

                    It's hard to know what the option is because chmod
                    is a linux thing. Programs (i.e. the web server
                    software) run as a user on linux (and windows), but
                    in linux you can put that user into a group (usually
                    for security reasons). So you'd need to get the gory
                    details of that from the server administrator (and
                    for security reasons you might not get it out of
                    them) - so, your best bet is to speak to a server
                    administrator.

                    HTH.

                          published by Xerte 2.18

                        Hello.

                          I'm having a trouble in accessing the
                            HTML document published by Xerte. It's
                            working fine in preview (Xerte) and in local
                            machine.

                          I put chmod 711 for public_html and put
                            644 for the folder that contains the web
                            pages (HTML). Whenever I publish it produces
                            index.htm FYI. When I created HTML from
                            scratch (not using Xerte) and saved it as
                            index.html it works but I want whatever I
                            publish from Xerte to be accessible.

                          I tried 755, 664. None works (Nothing
                            displayed on the browser).

                          Please help,
                          Suhaila
