 Here you will find answers to why something just isn't working.  This is our [http://status.dreamhost.com/ outages] weblog.
-Not sure how to create a subcategory for this so feel free to edit (and create a topic on how to create subcategories on MediaWiki while you are at it).
-I ran across a problem with directory access via http and https.
-I had set permissions on the directory to 755
-I had cleared the .htaccess settings
-Yet I could not access the directory other than through SSH
-Turns out I had Subversion (SVN) enabled and had that directory set up as a repository
-So if you have directory access problems with a website directory check the following:
-# Do you have the directory permissions set to 755 (or whatever is appropriate for your application)?
-# Are your .httaccess settings including usernames and passwords correct (you can set this from the Dreamhost control panel now)?
-# Is Subversion, or some other application, already using that directory and blocking access?
-Hope this saves someone some time in the future.
