[Former Member]

Hi SAP Experts,

I tried to use function get HTTP Interface in my content server.

when i enter link below in my browser, there is error message appeared 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.

http://[server]:[port]/ContentServer/ContentServer.dll&get&pVersion=0046&contRep=ZCR_TEST&docId=0050...

SAP Content server was configured well.

Please help to suggest a resolution on this.

Thanks & Regards,

I got this problem because I was using SSL certificate as my user authentication and it was not able to check the revocation. I figured this out using the under given link. There is a simple registry tweak which saved my lot of time. I hope someone will get some help from this.

Hi Husin,

In CSADMIN select the content repository.

In the settings tab put following value

security = 0.

Restart the content server and then check the results.

Hope this helps.

Hi Husin,

Check OAC0,CSadmin settings and under details tab  make sure 'Check signaturecheckbox is not selected. Search in the forum there is  a lot of repeted quiries on 403 error. if still facing issue post with screen shot .

Try with this URL  http:\\<IP>:1090\ContentServer\ContentServer.dll?serverInfo .

Hi Husin,

Make sure full permission fo contentserver folder and check from IIS services itsbrowsing or not.

Check for default browser and content server  at operating system level with below url  Resolving IIS 403 Forbidden: Access is denied &amp;#187; Sanuja Senanayake

Hi Husin,

I hope that given full permission for both contentserver as well as default websites.Did you restated contentserver after made changes ?

Did you ever performed  any commands like..

  

If so,   check for Defaut and contentserver .please check clearly for permissions .make sure as below.

Check for port number 1090 from hostfile .

HI Husin,

Issue resolved by urself good to hear .

Not found means that given URL is wrong.

Creoss check with HTTP script path given on OAc0 i hope that you followed as per content server folder located on the content server.

Try with :    http:\\servername:1090\ContentServer\ContentServer.dll?serverInfo
