Hi aspangilinan,

Half an hour to answer on your question is not much time. Sometimes it can take hours or days to get an answer.
Next time wait 2 or 3 days. If you don't get an answer in that time, you can take another try with pushing your thread.

What do you have typed in our browsers address bar?
The requested folder doesn't have a index file, and the auto index for that folder is deactivated or the folder is read-protected. Check your permissions on that folder.

You can resolve it, by reading and understanding the error message. What is unclear to you, what do you not understand in that message?

Check if you have any other servers running at the same time as well, such as lighttpd. Make sure that server isn't running or all sort of nastiness will ensue.
