Re: Basic problem with Welcome file - error 403

Rob,

I would strongly suggest that you convert over to the Apache based HTTP
server. It performs much better than the original server, is much more
flexible, and scales much better (make sure you have a recent group PTF
installed for the HTTP server before you convert). Since you are using
virtual hosts, you'll find that the container based configuration file
it uses is much, much easier to manage than the Original server's
configuration file. I do not recommend using the migration wizard. The
configurations it produces are very, very ugly and tend to be buggy if
you have anything other than a trivial configurations. Instead, start
with a blank configuration and build it out manually. If you can find a
copy, the book "Professional Apache 2.0" is very helpful but there's
plenty of good information at http://httpd.apache.org and the
configuration file distributed with Apache (you can download from the
same site) is well documented and full of examples.

Also, V5R2 is the last version of the OS to support the original HTTP
server so you'll eventually have to do this anyway.

Matt
