Download errors reference - Error 403. Forbidden download.

Error 403. Forbidden download.

Description
Access to the requested file is forbidden. This may happen if the site owner decided to restrict access to some information on the server. If the web-server from which you download the file has no permissions to read the requested file, it also will return Error 403. This error may be issued in the following cases:

  • It is not permitted to read all or some directories without main page (in this case directory listing should be returned);
  • The server has limitation on the number of connections from one IP-address;
  • The server requires cookies but DM cannot send them to the server (if you use the browser other than Internet Explorer);
  • The server is overloaded.
