Transfer Dolphin 7.1 from XAMP to live server

Probably this question has been answered before, I have Dolphin 7.1 installed on my local server  XAMP, working just fine! after number of customisation i transfered it into live server, changed db name and password to suit my online ver. However, i got "You don't have permission to access /site/ on this server." when i try to open my site, I have hosted it in a sub domain. Can someone help me out there?

Give us a bit of information on the live server, OS version, php version, web server type and version, directory structure for the site; hiding anything you don't want to share.

First of course is to check permissions and see who owns the site files; if your webserver does not have permissions to access the site, then you won't be able to access the site.

Did you check the user:owner of the website files to make sure that Apache has access to them?  Since you have other websites on the same box, you can compare the Dolphin setup to them.  Sometimes depending on how we upload the files, the user:owner can change from what they need to be.  You can use chown -R to change the user:owner of all the directories/files at once in case that is the issue.  You will also need to change the permissions of the directories/files as outline in the HELP documentation; click on HELP above and go to detailed installation; the cache and cache_public will need to be 777 or you can get site errors.  There is some entries of the permission outlined in HELP that no longer applies so you will get an error when applying the permissions.  Be sure to cd / to the website directory before applying the permissions.
