I do have Ubuntu desktop 10.04 which all my php web application folder resides at the var/www,copying all files to ubuntu desktop 11.10 var/www folder and run it at the browser with url: "http://localhost/somewebapplication" it gives me (403 Forbidden).

The Apache MySQL PHP already installed and running just fine, just to test I create a php file that displays a phpinfo() at sub-folder var/www/test/ and access it from the browser with url "http://localhost/test" it show's the php information.

what could be the problem?

    Logs and config files are the only way we're going to solve this.
