Access forbidden!

I installed XAMPP on my MacBook Pro. it works great. but whenever I restart Mac, I get the following error:

Access forbidden!
You don't have permission to access the requested object. It is either read-protected or not readable by the server.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Error 403
sparklyo.local
Apache/2.4.54 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.1.1s PHP/8.2.0 mod_perl/2.0.12 Perl/v5.34.1

I tried everything available on the Internet and also tried ChatGPT help but nothing is working.
Can you guys pls help me fix it?

Thanks

You say, "I get the following error".

_What_ gives you that error? The XAMPP control panel app? The Apache web server logs? The web browser window?

And what are you doing when that error message appears? Does it spontaneously happen when you restart your Mac? Or does it happen when you send your browser to a particular URL? Maybe the URL of a website or app which you are developing?

This is an unknown Servername for Xampp. Xampp comes with localhost only. So you did configure "some" things but does not tell us. We cannot help you on that without any knowledge. You did an error somewhere. Good luck.
