I had to download the MAMP pro version because the free version wouldn't start Apache on my machine. This means that my interface is different than the one shown in the video. My problem, I believe, is my start page when I go to the web. I do have the phpMyAdmin and the phpinfo under tools, but there is no link to go to my website. When I type the full path to my php page, all I see is a page telling me that my host site was set up correctly. I've been trying to figure this out for hours, and could really use some help! Thanks.

1,672 PointsI started following the video again, and I was able to change the root folder to Documents/sites, but now when I try to view it in the browser I get this error: Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server.
What do I do now?
