[cPanel] “.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable”

User complain he can’t access his site, with site error shows “403 Forbidden Error”.
When I check his cpanel error log, I get

[Sun Jul 13 01:15:32 2008] [crit] [client 218.208.xxx.xxx] (13)Permission denied: /home/mydomain/public_html/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable

I thought it was .htaccess issue, so I trying to delete it. But .htaccess is can’t be deleted. After Googling I found From Techie Corner’s blog. And this is what I’ve done

  1. Login into your CPanel account
  2. Click on “Frontpage Extensions” icon
  3. Click on “Install extensions” button beside your problem domain.
  4. Done. The “.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file” problem has been fixed.
