title: Access denied on 1&1 server
body: <p>I am having a problem with hosting a website on a 1&amp;1 server (Bought package is SmartWeb M). I uploaded everything to the public_html folder (before you ask - yes, index.html is located in the document root and not one of the subfolders). When I then try to call the page in a browser I get the following error:</p>
  
  <p>Forbidden</p>
  
  <p>You don't have permission to access /index.html on this server.</p>
  
  <p>Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.</p>
  
  <p>Since I couldn't find any .htaccess on forehand I created one in hope that that would fix it - nothing.
  I have been waiting for an answer from the 1&amp;1 help desk in more than 3 days now and I am moderately angry at their service.</p>
  
  <p>Could anyone help me with this?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
