Http://www.cnblogs.com/abeen/p/4517171.html

Nginx's 403 Forbidden errors indicates that you are requesting a resource file but Nginx does not allow you to view it.

403 Forbidden is just an HTTP status code, like 404,200 is not a technical error.
Which scenes need to return a 403 status code scenario.

1. The website prohibits specific users from accessing all content, for example: the site masks an IP access.
2. Access directory to prohibit directory browsing, example: Set AutoIndex off to access the directory.
3. User access to only intranet access files.

1. Permissions are not configured correctly

Workaround: Set all parent directories to 755 permissions and set the file to 644 permissions to avoid incorrect permissions.

Or: Modify nginx.conf file modification nginx start user.

Or: Modify Www-data Read and write permissions to the corresponding directory.

2. Directory index Setup error (index directive configuration)

The web site root does not contain a file that is set by the index directive.

Solution: Add the first file to the index directive, common is index.php,index.jsp,index.jsp or custom first page file.
