    help question Folder Upload, what permissions to view in Browser

    I have where a person has to upload a file that goes to the Upload folder.

    The person that processes the order needs the image.

    So... I thought I could just give them a link to the "uploads" folder so they can download the image needed with the order.

    I get this error:
    Forbidden

    You don't have permission to access /storefront/images/uploads/ on this server.
    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
    Apache/1.3.37 Server Port 80

    I tried chmod the folder uploads to 777, 775, 666 non work.

    Any suggestions on how to view this from a browser?

    The uploads folder is set to only accept files that come through the Zen Cart program.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

    Thanks for replying,
    I guess I didnt explain well enough.

    Instead of the person that is processing an order use an FTP program to retrieve the images from the uploads folder, I was trying to create a web link, to the uploads folder, so they could use their browser to download the image for the order processing.

    so if you went to www.mysite.com/images/uploads/

    They would see something like this:

    Index of /uploads

    Parent Directory 12-Mar-2007 09:49
    image_1
    image_2

    Then they can downloaded the linked images.

    Thanks
